5 8/12 in the simplest form is 17/3
If two triangles are similar then the
corresponding sides are in proportion. Thus,
AB / AU = BC / UV = AC / AV
AB / (20x+108) = 703 / 444
Where AB is equivalent to:
AB = AU + UB
AB = 20x + 108 + 273
AB = 20x + 381
Therefore going back to the first equation:
(20x + 381) / (20x + 108)
= 703/444
444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)
8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924
14060x - 8880x = 169164 – 75924
5180 x = 93240
x = 93240 / 5180
<span>x = 18 (ANSWER)</span>
Answer:
An 18 sided shape.
Since the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360° and an angle of the regular polygon is 20°, then 360° / 20° is the number of sides. We find the answer = 18, an octadecagon
