Answer: 1 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Use 26/8 - 11/8 to get 15/8 then convert to mixed number
If you multiply 7 by .75 you get 5.25
rectangle = area = 5.25
then multiply 2.5 by itself and you get 6.25
square area = 6.25
So the 2 1/2 inch square has more room
Answer:
60 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Restructured question:
The measure of two opposite interior angles of a triangle are x−14 and x+4. The exterior angle of the triangle measures 3x-45 . Solve for the measure of the exterior angle.
First you must know that the sum of interior angle of a triangle is equal to the exterior angle
Interior angles = x−14 and x+4
Sum of interior angles = x-14 + x + 4
Sum of interior angles = 2x - 10
Exterior angle = 3x - 45
Equating both:
2x - 10 = 3x - 45
Collect like terms;
2x - 3x = -45 + 10
-x = -35
x = 35
Get the exterior angle:
Exterior angle = 3x - 45
Exterior angle = 3(35) - 45
Exterior angle = 105 - 45
Exterior angle = 60
Hence the measure of the exterior angle is 60 degrees
<em>Note that the functions of the interior and exterior angles are assumed. Same calculation can be employed for any function given</em>
