Explain why a regular polygon cannot have an interior angle that is 40°.

Mathematics

Minchanka [31]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the interior angle of any regular polygon is given as;

Interior Angle = 180(n - 2)/n

Where n is number of sides

We are told the interior angle is 40°

Thus;

180(n - 2)/n = 40

Cross multiply to get;

180n - 360 = 40n

180n - 40n = 360

140n = 360

n = 360/140

n = 2.57

Number of sides of a regular polygon cannot be in decimal nor can it have less than 3 sides.

Thus, a shape with interior angle of 40 cannot be a polygon.

Alice and Bob have two positive integers, x and y respectively, glued to their foreheads, so that each can read the other’s numb
vazorg [7]

Step-by-step explanation: |x − y| = 1, ok lets play as Alice, my number is y, and the bob number is x.

the condition says that x-y = 1 or x-y = -1.

so, if you know x, then y = 1 +y or y = y - 1. so you have two possibilities.

let's see two cases : first, let's suppose there are no code in the conversation. Then the only way of being shure of your number, is if one of them have the lowest positive number, so the other should have the next one. So if Bob have the number one, Alice knows for shure that she has the  2. Bob knows that she has a 2, but that means he could have a 1 or a 3, but when he sees that Alice is shure about her number, he knows that his number is the 1.

the second case is where the conversation may be a sort of code, saying a phrase x times and changing when x = the number of the other person, in this case, bob will have the 201 and alice the 202.

Hi there!

\large\boxed{b = \frac{a}{ac - 1}}

We can begin by making each fraction have a common denominator:

If we make each have a common denominator of ab, we get:

\frac{b}{ab} + \frac{a}{ab} = c

Simplify:

\frac{a + b}{ab}  = c

Multiply both sides by ab:

a + b = cab

Move b to the opposite side:

a = cab - b

Factor out b:

a = b(ac - 1)

Divide by (ac - 1):

\frac{a}{ac - 1} = b
