Find the measure of each interior angle and each exterior angle of a regular nonagon (a nine-sided polygon).

Answer:

Interior-140° Exterior-40°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon are given by 180(n-2) where n is the number of sides.

Therefore, the sum of all interior angles in a nonagon is 180(9-2) or 180×7. This equals to 1260°.

To get the individual interior angle, you use \frac{s}{n}, with n defined above and s being the sum of interior angles.

Therefore, each angle is \frac{1260}{9}°, which can be solved to 140°.

The value of an individual exterior angle is given by 180-i, with i being the individual interior angle (this is because the 2 angles form a straight line).

In this case, 180-140=40°.

Each interior angle of a nonagon is 140°, and each exterior angle is 40°.

What is the equation of a parabola with (−2, 4) as its focus and y = 6 as its directrix? Enter the equation in the box.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Check the picture below.  So the parabola looks more or less like so.

let's recall that the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, at "p" units away from both.

Let's notice that the focus point is below the directrix, that means the parabola is vertical, namely the squared variable is the "x", and it also means that it's opening downwards as  you see in the picture, namely that "p" is negative, in this case "p" is 1 unit, and thus is -1.

\bf \textit{parabola vertex form with focus point distance} \\\\ \begin{array}{llll} 4p(x- h)=(y- k)^2 \\\\ \stackrel{\textit{we'll use this one}}{4p(y- k)=(x- h)^2} \end{array} \qquad \begin{array}{llll} vertex\ ( h, k)\\\\ p=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\ \qquad \textit{ focus or directrix} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \begin{cases} h=-2\\ k=5\\ p=-1 \end{cases}\implies 4(-1)(y-5)=[x-(-2)]^2\implies -4(y-5)=(x+2)^2 \\\\\\ y-5=-\cfrac{1}{4}(x+2)^2\implies y=-\cfrac{1}{4}(x+2)^2+5

Write a quadratic function that has been translated 1<br> units to the right and 3 units down.
vodka [1.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

f(x) = (x - 1) - 3

The -1 is the 1 unit to the right (even though it's being subtracted, it's going to the right because it's embedded with the x)

And the -3 is not embedded with the x, meaning the function will move 3 units down.

I hope this helps :)
