Why do the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees?

Mathematics

Elena L [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Let N equal the number of angles in the polygon

Use the formula:

(N x 180)-360 = the sum of all the angles in the polygon

A triangle has 3 angles so:

(3 x 180)-360=180 degrees

(this formula works for any polygon, regardless of the number of it's angles)

Answer:

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees because triangles are have the measure and sizes of quadrilaterals, which have an angle measure of 360 degrees. If you divide 360 degrees by 2, you will get 180 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

How to figure out pythagoras theorem?
Paladinen [302]

Any triangle with one angle equal to 90⁰ produces a Pythagoras triangle and the Pythagoras equation can be applied in the triangle.

<h3>What is the Pythagoras Theorem?</h3>

The Pythagoras theorem states that if a triangle is right-angled (90 degrees), then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In △ABD and △ACB,

∠A = ∠A (common)

∠ADB = ∠ABC (both are right angles)

Thus, △ABD ∼ △ACB (by AA similarity criterion)

Similarly, we can prove △BCD ∼ △ACB.

Thus △ABD ∼ △ACB,

Therefore, AD/AB = AB/AC.

We can say that AD × AC = AB².

Similarly, △BCD ∼ △ACB.

Therefore,

CD/BC = BC/AC.

We can also say that

CD × AC = BC².

Adding these 2 equations, we get

AB² + BC² = (AD × AC) + (CD × AC)

AB² + BC² =AC(AD +DC)

AB² + BC² = AC²

Hence proved

Thus, any triangle with one angle equal to 90⁰ produces a Pythagoras triangle and the Pythagoras equation can be applied in the triangle.

Which statement best describes a many-to-one function?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

many different values of x lead to the same value of y.

hence, many-to-one.

but it does not mean that all values of x have to lead to the same value of y. it could be, but it is not demanded. so, it is not necessarily a horizontal line.

and this does not give us any information about the power of x involved. so, we cannot make any statement about linear or non-linear function.

Convert 7500cm to meters
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: 75 meters

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're asked to convert 7,500 centimeters into meters which means we use the conversion factor for centimeters and meters.

Conversion factor ⇒ <em>100 centimeters = 1 meter</em>

Next, notice that we're converting from a smaller unit "centimeters" to a larger unit "meters" and when we convert from a smaller unit to a larger unit we divide by the conversion factor.

So we divide 7,500 by the conversion factor which is 100.

7,500 ÷ 100 = 75

Therefore, 7,500 centimeters = 75 meters.
