PQ and QR are 2 sides of a regular 10-sided polygon

Mathematics

gladu [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of inner angle of the n-sided polygon is

\frac{180(n-2)}{n}

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

m∠PQR = \frac{180(10-2)}{10} = 144°

PQ = QR ⇒ m∠QPR = m∠QRP

<em>m∠PRQ =</em> ( 180° - 144° ) ÷ 2 = <em>18 </em>°

Answer:

∠PRQ = 18°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />

Sum of interior angles of a polygon = (n - 2) × 180°
(where n is the number of sides)

Interior angle of a regular polygon = sum of interior angles ÷ n
(where n is the number of sides)

Given:

  • n = 10

⇒ Sum of interior angles of a polygon = (10 - 2) × 180° = 1440°

⇒ Interior angle of a regular polygon = 1440° ÷ 10 = 144°

Therefore, as PQ and QR are the sides of the polygon, ∠PQR = 144°

Sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180°

⇒ ∠PQR + ∠RPQ + ∠PRQ = 180°

⇒ 144° + ∠RPQ + ∠PRQ = 180°

⇒ ∠RPQ + ∠PRQ = 36°

As the polygon is regular, PQ = QR which means that ΔPQR is isosceles.

Therefore, ∠RPQ = ∠PRQ

⇒ ∠PRQ = 36° ÷ 2 = 18°

Which statement is true about the end behavior of the graphed function?
dlinn [17]

Answer:

"As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to positive infinity."

Step-by-step explanation:

End-Behavior of a fucntion is basically what happens to the function when x goes to positive infinity and when x goes to negative infinity.

In this function, we can say:

  • as we move to the right (x increases), the value of the function (y-value) increases towards positive infinity.
  • Also,
  • as we move to the left (x decreases), the value of the function (y-value) decreases towards negative infinity.

From the answer choices, we take the last one -- "As the x-values go to positive infinity, the function's values go to positive infinity."

* Note, this is a cubic function

Which is the solution to the system 3x+y=8 and 7x−4y=25
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

(3, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x + y = 8 → (1)

7x - 4y = 25 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 4 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

12x + 4y = 32 → (3)

Add (2) and (3)  term by term to eliminate y

19x + 0 = 57

19x = 57 ( divide both sides by 19 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

3(3) + y = 8

9 + y = 8 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

y = - 1

solution is (3, - 1 )

A carpenter is making a backyard deck. In the measurements, he has determined that he needs to make a support triangle with an a
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

base = 3x - 1

height = x

area of triangle = (1/2)bh

22 = (1/2)(3x-1)(x)

44 = (3x-1)(x)

44 = 3x^2-x

0 = 3x^2-x-44

0 = 3x^2-12x+11x-44

0 = (3x^2-12x)+(11x-44)

0 = 3x(x-4)+11(x-4)

0 = (x-4)(3x+11)

x = {-11/3, 4}

throw out the negative solution (extraneous) leaving

x = 4 m (height)

.

Base:

3x - 1 = 3(4) - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11 

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope it will help you
