Answer: 135°

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're asked to find the measure of each interior angle of a regular octagon.

So let's use our formula for finding the measure of

each interior angle of a regular octagon which is $\frac{180(n - 2)}{n}$ .

In this formula, n represents the

number of sides of the polygon.

Remember that an octagon is a polygon that has 8 sides

so we plug a 8 in for n and we have $\frac{180(8 - 2)}{8}$ .

Simplifying across the top, (8 - 2) is 6so we have $\frac{180(6)}{8}$ .

180(6) is 1,080 so we have $\frac{1,080}{8}$ and

1,080 divided by 8 gives us 135.

So the measure of each interior angle of a regular octagon is 135°.

Answer:

the graph is in link

Step-by-step explanation:

y ..... means full line and shading above the line

Y< ......means doted line and shading below the line

A) solution is overlapping shaded part

B) (10,5)

plug in point in inequalities and check if it's true; if it's true you showed that solution is correct

1. 5-1/2*10 + 2 1/2

5 -5 + 2 1/2

5 -2 1/2 TRUE

2. 51/5*10 + 6

5< 2 + 6

5< 8 TRUE

Need please help with the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a rotating solid out of an xy area in a certain interval is pi times the integral of that area squared (because we are emulating adding the volumes of cylinder slices) in that interval along the given axis.

if that area is defined as the difference between 2 curves, then that difference (of the squares) has to be integrated.

the "outer" curve is y = x² + 3 = R, because it has always the larger y values compared to y = 2x + 1 = r.

the volume of an outer cylinder slice is

pi × R² × dx

and of an internal cylinder slice is

pi × r² × dx

therefore, the volume of the difference "washer" cylinder is

pi×R²×dx - pi×r²×dx = pi×(R² - r²)×dx

and now integrating the infinitely thin washers across the interval [0, 2].

R² = (x²+3)² = x⁴ +6x² + 9

r² = (2x+1)² = 4x² + 4x + 1

R² - r² = x⁴ + 2x² - 4x + 8

the integral of (R² - r²)dx :

1/5 x⁵ + 2/3 x³ - 4/2 x² + 8x = 1/5 x⁵ + 2/3 x³ - 2x² + 8x

in the interval of [0, 2] that gives us

1/5 2⁵ + 2/3 2³ - 2×2² + 8×2 - 0 = 32/5 + 16/3 - 8 + 16 =

= 32/5 + 16/3 + 8 = 96/15 + 80/15 + 120/15 = 296/15

and as final step multiplying this by pi :

296pi/15 = 61.99409503... units³ ≈ 62 units³

What is x? I will give brainliest if you explain your answer.

horsena [70]

Answer:

x = {0, π/2, 3π/2, 2π}

Step-by-step explanation:

cotx cos x - cot x = 0
cotx( cosx - 1) = 0

1. cotx = 0

x = π/2 + πn
In the interval [0, 2π] we have π/2 and 3π/2

2. cosx = 1

x = 0 + 2πn
In the given interval we have 0 and 2π

So the solution set is:

x = {0, π/2, 3π/2, 2π}

How do you round 281.05 to the nearest tenth

It's already rounded to the nearest tenth. The second decimal place is the tenths decimal place

Catie is trying to determine the height that a ladder reaches as it leans against a wall. She walks under the ladder and touches

brilliants [131]

18.56 feet
Catie creates a similar triangle with the ladder so we can create a proportion to solve for the height.
$\frac{baseto feet}{base to wall} = \frac{catie height}{wall height}$
Convert all values to feet . 16in = 1.33 ft . 5ft 6 in = 5.5 ft
Insert values into proportions
$\frac{1.33}{4.5} = \frac{5.5}{x}$
Cross multiply to get
24.75=1.33x
divide both sides by 1.33
x=18.56ft
