3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

"Of" means multiplication, and percent means out of 100.

25/100 × 150 = 700/100 × n

75/2 = 7n

n = 75/14

n ≈ 5.357

Find the measure of a central angle of a regular polygon with 10 sides

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

114 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the measure of all angles in a regular polygon is $(n-2)180$ , where n = total number of sides.

Thus, we substitute n for 10, and you get:

$(10-2)180=1440$

If the shape is a regular polygon and it has ten sides, meaning all sides are equal, then all you do is divide 1440 by 10, to get the final answer of 114.

A central angle in a regular ten-sided polygon would be 144 degrees.

The perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/3 centimeters, find the length of the radius and apothem.

MAXImum [283]

There is a typo error, the perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/√3 centimeters.

Answer:

Radius = OB= 27 cm

Apothem = 13.5 cm

A diagram is attached for reference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/√3 centimeters.

Substituting this in the formula of perimeter of equilateral triangle = $3\times\ side$

$3\times\ side$ $=[tex]81\sqrt{3}$

$Side = \frac{81\sqrt{3} }{3} =27\sqrt{3} \ cm$

Thus from the diagram , Side $AB=BC=AC= 27\sqrt{3} \ cm$

We know each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60°.

From the diagram, OB is an angle bisector.

Thus $\angle OBC = 30$ °

Apothem is the line segment from the mid point of any side to the center the equilateral triangle.

Therefore considering ΔOBE, and applying tan function.

$tan\theta =\frac{perpendicular}{base} \\tan\theta=\frac{OE}{BE} \\tan\theta=\frac{OE}{\frac{27\sqrt{3}}{2} } \\tan30\times {\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2} }= OE\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } \times\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2} =OE\\$

Thus ,apothem OE= 13.5 cm

Now for radius,

We consider ΔOBE

$cos\theta=\frac{base}{hypotenuse} \\cos30= \frac{BE}{OB} \\Cos30 = \frac{\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}}{OB} \\OB= \frac{\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}}{cos30} \\OB= \frac{\frac{27\sqrt{3} }{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} } \\OB =27 \ cm$

Thus for

Perimeter of equilateral triangle ABC is 81/√3 centimeters,

The radius of equilateral triangle ABC is 27 cm

The apothem of equilateral triangle ABC is 13.5 cm

Marcus earns 15% commission on his total sales at work.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

Total cost is $725
15% Marcus makes in commission.

In order to find the answer, we have to find 15% of $725 and that number will be the total in commissions he earned that week.

$\frac{15\times725}{100} =15\times725=10875\div100=108.75$

Marcus makes "$108.75" or option C in commissions last week.

Hope this helps.
