A 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}. Find the probability of rolling

Answer: 1/12</h3>
This is because there's one side we want (that's labeled "8") out of 12 sides total. This is of course if each side is equally likely.
Side note: this 12-sided die is known as a dodecahedron.
Answer:
120
Step-by-step explanation:
A polar coordinate is that which can be written as (r, θ) where r is the radius and θ is the angle.
The radius, r, is also the hypotenuse of the right triangle that can be formed. Hence, it can be calculated through the equation,
r² = x² + y²
If we are to simplify this for the r alone, we have,
r = sqrt (x² + y²)
Substituting the known values,
r = sqrt ((4)² + (-4)²) = 4√2
The x and y can be related through the trigonometric function, tangent.
tan θ = y/x
To solve for θ
θ = tan⁻¹(y/x) = tan⁻¹(-4/4) = -45° = 315°
Hence, the polar coordinate is <em>(4√2, 315°)</em>
