Step One
Find RST
The two base angles are given as equal and one of the is 28. So is the other one.
SRT = 28
STR = 28
All triangles have interior angles that add up to 180 degrees.

RST + SRT + STR = 180
28 + 28 + RST = 180
56 + RST = 180 Subtract 56 from both sides.
RST = 180 - 56
RST = 124

Step two
Find the exterior angle
The exterior angle = Sum of the two remote interior angles (RST + SRT)
The exterior angle = 28 + 124
The exterior angle = 152

Step Three
Find the value of x
2*x = 152 Divide by 2
x = 152 / 2
x = 76

There is a quicker way of finding the exterior angle. I didn't see it until I had written step two.
The exterior angle + STR = 180 degrees. They are supplementary.
The exterior angle + 28 = 180
The exterior angle = 180 - 28
The exterior angle = 152

Have to find volume and surface area but idk how
Setler [38]

Answer:

volume 1050 in^{3}

surface area 859 in^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

volume is length times width times height (7*25*12)/2

surface area is area of all the sides added together

2(25*12)+(12*7)+ 2(\frac{7*25}{2})

How do you explain how you convert a decimal?
Troyanec [42]
For example if we have 7/10 we have one 0 in the denominator so we move the decimal spot 1 to the left

So:
7.0 becomes 0.70 or .7

To make a decimal into a fraction:

0.32

Just add two zeros to the right and that means 2 0's will be added in the denominator
so:

0.32
32.0/100 or 32/100

Hope that helps :)

You are dealt one card from a satndard 52-card deck. Find the probability of being dealt an ace or a 7
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

2/13    or  15.38%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Aces in a deck = 4

Number of 7s in a deck = 4

Number of cards in a deck = 52

Probability of A or 7 = (4 Aces + 4 Sevens) / 52 cards                                          8 cards / 52 cards

This simplifies to                           2/13    or  15.38%
