<span>12/25=x/88
12(88)=25(x)
1056=25x divide both sides by 25
x=42.24</span>
Take the length of one of the sides and times that by the radius. Divide that answer by 2. Now take that and multiply by the number of sides the polygon has. If you can't find the radius or side, you're going to have to use tan, sin, or cos.
For this case we have the following equation:
Rewriting we have:
Dividing by 2 to both sides of the equation:
We apply the quadratic formula:
We have to:
Substituting:
Thus, we have two roots:
ANswer:
An integer divided by its opposite always equals -1: this is false. Any number which is not 0 divided by it's opposite is in fact equal to -1, but since 0 is also an integer, it's false. You are right, good job!
