Assuming 0.4 is in fact, 2 divided by 5 (and not an approximation of some number that would require an infinite amount of decimal places to exactly express), then multiplication by 0.4 is the same as multiplying by 2 and dividing by 5.

This means that multiplying any rational number by 2/5 will yield another rational number (as given x/y as an input, where x and y are integers, and multiplying it by 2/5 giving 2x/5y, will mean that 2x and 5y are also integers, and the result is also rational)

If we multiply an irrational number by 2/5, however, the result will be irrational.

So your answer is any number not in the set of rational numbers, multiplied by 0.4, will yield an irrational number.

"La suma de la medida de los ángulos interiores de cualquier triángulo, es igual a dos triángulos rectos, o sea a 180°."
Art [367]

Answer:

Efectivamente, la suma de la medida de los ángulos internos de cualquier figura triangular es igual a 180º. Ahora bien, la oración posee un error de redacción, pues tanto los triángulos rectos como los equiláteros o los isósceles poseen dicha característica, es decir, no es únicamente una característica de los triángulos rectos. Además, la suma de los ángulos interiores de dos triángulos rectos sería igual a 360º, no a 180º.
