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°

If d is the midpoint of ce, ce=10x+18 and de=7x-1, find x
sashaice [31]
Given that D is the mid point of CE ,


So D will bisect CE, it means the length of DE and CD is equal.


=> DE + CD = CE



As DE and CD are equal,



=> DE + DE = CE

=> 2 DE = CE



Putting values from the question,


=> 2( 7x - 1 ) = 10x + 18

=> 14x - 2 = 10x + 18

=> 14x - 10x = 18 + 2

=> 4x = 20

=> x = 20 / 4

=> x = 10 / 2

=> x = 5

.





Therefore, the value of x is 5

What is the answer to this problem -2b+6=-2b-2b?
TEA [102]
6 = -2b (cancel -2b on both sides)

6/-2 = b (divide both sides by -2)

-3 = b (simplify 6/2 to 3)

now switch sides

Answer: b = -3
