Answer:

<em>Since one of the angles is 90°, the triangle is right.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Angles in a Triangle</u>

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. We are given the angles are x, 5x, and 6x, thus:

x + 5x + 6x = 180

Simplifying:

12x = 180

Dividing by 12:

x = 180/12 = 15

x = 15°

5x = 75°

6x = 90°

Since one of the angles is 90°, the triangle is right.

You practice your basketball shots every day. On Friday you made 20 shots. On Saturday you made 16 shots. What is the percent de

STatiana [176]

So,

All you have to do to find the percent decrease is to subtract your score on Saturday from your score on Friday and divide the result by your score on Friday. If you let "f" represent your score on Friday and let "s" represent your score on Saturday, you can re-write this mathematically:

$\frac{f - s}{f} = percent\ decrease$

Substitute.
$\frac{20 - 16}{20} = percent\ decrease$
$\frac{4}{20} \ or\ \frac{1}{5}\ or\ twenty\ percent = percent\ decrease$

The percent decrease in shots you made was 20%. That would be option C.

Suppose you have to use right-triangle trigonometry to find the apothem of a regular polygon. Which is greater, the apothem or t

asambeis [7]

The apothem represents one side of the right triangle to be solved. Specifically, it represents the height of the triangle.
The radius of the polygon represents the hypotenuse of the right triangle that is going to be solved.
Therefore, we can infer that the radius of the polygon is greater than the apothem because the hypotenuse is greater than all sides of a triangle.
Answer:
the radius of the polygon is greater

Illusion [34]

The answer is L = 59 + 2(d). If we plug in our numbers, we will get L = 59 + 2(32). 2*32 is 64, and if you add 59 you get 123 miles.

This isn’t apart of the question, but 59 would be the y-intercept. 2 miles per day (2/1) is the slope.

150% of what number is 40.

Crazy boy [7]

Solution for what is 150% of 40 40/x=100/150 (40/x)*x=(100/150)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x 40=0.666666666667*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.666666666667) to get x 40/0.666666666667=x 60=x x=60 now we have: 150% of 40=60
