Answer: The correct option is (B) octagon.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that an interior angle of a regular polygon has a measure of 135°.

We are to select the type of the polygon from the given options.

We know that, if n represents the number of sides of a regular polygon and α be its exterior angle, then

$n=\dfrac{360^\circ}{\alpha}.$

Given that,

an interior angle of the regular polygon is 135°.

So, the measure of an exterior angle will be

$\alpha=180^\circ-135^\circ=45^\circ.$

Therefore, the number of sides of the regular polygon is

$n=\dfrac{360^\circ}{\alpha}=\dfrac{360^\circ}{45^\circ}=8.$

So, there are 8 sides of the polygon and hence it is an OCTAGON.

Thus, (B) is the correct option.

Which graph shows the axis of symmetry for the function f(x) = (x – 2)2 + 1? On a coordinate plane, a vertical dashed line at (n

Deffense [45]

The axis of symmetry of f(x) is:

On a coordinate plane, a vertical dashed line at (2, 0) is parallel to

the y-axis ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a quadratic function is f(x) = a(x - h)² + k, where

(h , k) are the coordinates of its vertex point
The axis of symmetry of it is a vertical line passes through (h , 0)
The minimum value of the function is y = k at x = h

∵ f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

∵ f(x) = (x - 2)² + 1

∴ a = 1 , h = 2 , k = 1

∵ The axis of symmetry of f(x) is a vertical line passes through (h , 0)

∴ The axis of symmetry of f(x) is a vertical line passes through (2 , 0)

∵ Any vertical line is parallel to y-axis

∴ The axis of symmetry of f(x) is a vertical line parallel to y-axis and

passes through (2 , 0)

The axis of symmetry of f(x) is:

On a coordinate plane, a vertical dashed line at (2, 0) is parallel to

the y-axis
