Answer:
108º
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the sum of interior angles: ( n − 2 ) × 180 = x
x = 540º
n = # of interior angles
first, solve for n
(n - 2) • 180 = 540 distribute to 180 to (n - 2)
180n - 360 = 540 add 360 to both sides
180n = 900 divide both sides by 180
n = 5
to find measure of each angle:
540 ÷ 5 = 108º
The ratio of building heights will be the same as the ratio of shadow lengths.
(taller building)/(shorter building) = (longer shadow)/(shorter shadow)
(taller building)/(84 ft) = (110 ft)/(46 ft) . . . . . . fill in the given numbers
(taller building) = (84 ft)*(110/46) ≈ 200.9 ft . . multiply by 84 ft, evaluate
The appropriate selection is
D) 200.9 ft
