Why do vertices connected by a diagonal of a polygon have to be nonconsecutive?

Because consecutive vertices are already connected by the edges of the polygon.

Answer:

Basically, a segment which connects two consecutive vertices is not a diagonal, it's actually a side of a polygon.

So, in order to get a diagonal, you need to unit two nonconsecutive vertices, that way you won't get a side but a diagonal.

Actually, a diagonal of a polygon is defined as a segment which connects two nonconsecutive vertices.

Therefore, by definition, a diagonal must connect two nonconsecutive vertices.

3. A researcher randomly selects a sample of 61 former student leaders from a list of graduates of UNCG who had participated in
Sophie [7]

Answer:

not statistically significant at ∝ = 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size( n )  = 61

Average for student leader graduates to finish degree ( x') = 4.97 years

std = 1.23

Average for student body = 4.56 years

<u>Determine if the difference between the student leaders and the entire student population is statistically significant at alpha</u>

H0( null hypothesis ) : u = 4.56

Ha : u ≠ 4.56

using test statistic

test statistic ; t = ( x' - u ) / std√ n

                        = ( 4.97 - 4.56 ) / 1.23 √ 61

                        = 2.60

let ∝ = 0.05 , critical value = -2.60 + 2.60

Hence we wont fail to accept  H0

This shows that the difference between the student leaders and the entire student population is not statistically significant at ∝ = 0.05
