Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

In any polygon

exterior angle + interior angle = 180° , thus

exterior angle + 144 = 180 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

exterior angle = 36°

The sum of the exterior angles = 360°

Thus number of sides n is calculated as

n = 360 ÷ 36 = 10

Answer:

<h2>The polygon has 10 sides</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the interior angles of a polygon can be found using the formula

<h3>\frac{(n - 2) \times180\degree }{n}</h3>

where n is the number of sides of the polygon

From the question

One of the interior angles = 144

To find the number of sides substitute this value into the above formula and solve for n

That's

<h3>144 =  \frac{(n - 2) \times 180}{n}</h3>

<u>Cross multiply</u>

We have

<h3>144n = (n - 2) \times 180</h3>

<u>Expand the terms in the bracket</u>

<h3>144n = 180n - 360</h3>

<u>Group like terms</u>

<h3>144n - 180n =  - 360 \\  \\  - 36n =  - 360</h3>

<u>Divide</u><u> </u><u>both</u><u> sides</u><u> by</u><u> </u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>6</u>

That's

<h3>\frac{ - 36n}{ - 36}  =  \frac{ - 360}{ - 36}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>n = 10 sides </h3>

Hope this helps you

Find the area of the polygon​
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

784m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

is a rectangle with sides of 40m and 20m, in the upper right corner a right triangle has been removed with the legs of: 40 - 32 = 8m and 20 - 16 = 4m, we find the area of ​​the rectangle (b * h).

40 * 20 = 800m ^ 2, then we find the area of ​​the right triangle

1/2 b * h: 1/2 8 * 4 = 16 m ^ 2.

we remove the area of ​​the triangle from the rectangle and we have the area of ​​the figure: 800 - 16 = 784m^2

Answer:.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The 5 would go on the outside

  and four would go on the inside. Because 5 can't go into 4 evenly, add a decimal and a 0 after the 4. now we have 40 divided by 5. the answer is 0.8

Can anyone be nice and help a girl out. please i need help.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So when we solve the inequality:

2(x - 2) >_ 2

x - 2 >_  1 (divided 2 from both sides)

x >_ 3 (added 2 to both sides)

So with our final equation, we can work out that the answer is b, but d is also correct so I'm assuming that the inequality needs to be represented on a number line as hey usually are.

Hope this helps,

Cate

Find the domain of the function. (Enter your answer using interval notation.)
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

(-\infty,-9)\cup(-9,\infty)

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a rational function is all real numbers <em>except </em>for when the denominator equals 0.

So, to find the domain restrictions, set the denominator to 0 and solve for x.

We have the rational function:

s(y)=\frac{7y}{y+9}

Set the denominator to 0:

y+9=0

Subtract 9:

y\neq-9

So, the domain is all real numbers except for -9.

In other words, our domain is all values to the left of negative 9 and to the right of negative 9.

In interval notation, this is:

(-\infty,-9)\cup(-9,\infty)

And we're done :)
