Answer:

x = 43.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides are proportional.

FE/CE = GE/DE

x/27 = 40/25

x = 27(40/25) . . . . multiply by 27

x = 43.2

The measure of one angle of an octagon is two times smaller that of the other seven angles. What is the measure of each angle?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

7 of the angles measure 144 degrees each and one angle measures 72 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> represent the measures of the seven same-size angles,

x/2 ----> represent the measure of the one that is "two times smaller."

we know that

The sum of internal angles of a polygon can be calculated as:

$S=180^o(n-2)$

where

n is the number of sides of the polygon

In this case

n=8 (octagon)

substitute

$S=180^o(8-2)=1,080^o$

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$\frac{x}{2}+7x=1,080$

solve for x

$\frac{15x}{2}=1,080\\\\15x=2,160\\\\x=144^o$

$\frac{x}{2}=72^o$

therefore

7 of the angles measure 144 degrees each and one angle measures 72 degrees
