Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to factorize the given expression

2x^2 - 5x - 3,

2x^2 - 6x+x - 3

The two number that we are going to use to split -5x are -6 and 1

Hence the required two numbers are -6 and 1

Let p = -6

Let q = 1

<h3>Taking their sum</h3>

p+q = -6 + 1 = -5

Take the product

p*q = -6 * 1

p*q = -6

hence the product is equal to -6

Can a regular polygon have an interior angle of 132 degrees?
mash [69]

Given:

The interior angle of a regular polygon is 132 degrees.

To find:

The given statement is possible or not.

Solution:

Let as assume the interior angle of a regular polygon with n vertices is 132 degrees.

Then, the exterior angles are

180^\circ-132^\circ=48^\circ

We have, n vertices. So, the number of exterior angles is n.

Sum of all exterior angles = 48n degrees

We know that, sum of all exterior angles of a regular polygon is always 360 degrees.

48n=360

n=\dfrac{360}{48}

n=7.5

Number of vertices is always a whole number. So, it cannot be a fraction value.

So, our assumption is wrong.

Therefore, a regular polygon cannot have an interior angle of 132 degrees.
