To find the interior angle, you use the formula ((n - 2) x 180) / n (where n is the number of sides).
So, ((20 - 2) x 180) / 20 = 162
To find the exterior angle, you merely take away the interior angle from 180.
180 - 162 = 18, so the exterior angle is 18 degrees

Another, easier, way is to just divide 360 by n. All exterior angles always add to 360. Thus, 360 / 20 = 18 degrees

Exterior angles always add up to 360°

Given that there are 20 sides sides
⇒ 1 exterior angle = 360 ÷ 20 = 18°

Answer: 18°

The sun produces 3.9 ⋅ 10 to the 33th power ergs of radiant energy per second. How many ergs of radiant energy does the sun prod

arlik [135]

So the sun produces 3.9x10³³/ second

Using this ratio (3.9x10³³/ second) we can use the porpotions to calculate time taken (T) to produce 1.55x10⁷.

$\frac{3.9(10^3) ergs}{1 second} = \frac{1.55(10^7)ergs}{T}$

Then isolate T and find the time

$\frac{T3.9(10^3)ergs}{1 second} = {1.55(10^7)ergs$
$T3.9(10^3)ergs = ({1.55(10^7)ergs)seconds$
$T = \frac{(1.55(10^7)ergs)seconds}{3.9(10^3)ergs}$
$T = \frac{(1.55(10^7)seconds}{3.9(10^3)}$
$T = \frac{1.55}{3.9}(10^4)seconds$
$T = 0.397(10^4)seconds$
$T = 3.97(10^-^1)(10^4)seconds$
$T = 3.97(10^3)seconds$

Thus it took 3.97x10³ seconds for 1.55x10⁷. of ergs to be produced

I got a feeling I’m wrong

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

You are absolutely correct.

Step-by-step explanation:Equilateral, meaning all sides are the same size, and acute, meaning all angles are lower than 90 degrees. You are correct.
