Answer:1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
X would equal 8 and y would equal -7
This is a difference of perfect squares which is of the form:
(a^2-b^2)
And which always factors to:
(a-b)(a+b)
In this case:
(5x-8)(5x+8)
One way to do this is use the fact that the exterior angles of all polygons add up to 360 degrees
So an exterior angle of a regular octagon = 360 / 8 = 45 degrees.
So each interior angle = 180 - 45 = 135 degrees
so total measure of all angles in octagon = 8 * 135 = 1080 degrees
