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?pls help the answer is (not 77 degrees and 144 degrees)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

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

so

The linear equation that represent this problem is

(x)/(2)+7x=1,080

solve for x

(15x)/(2)=1,080\n\n15x=2,160\n\nx=144^o

so

(x)/(2)=72^o

therefore

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Area: 5π/2 in²

Perimeter: (3π+2) in

step-by-step explanation:

Area =

larger semicircle + small semicircle

= ½(pi × r1²) + ½(pi × r2²)

r1 = 2 in

r2 = 2/2 = 1 in

Area:

½(pi × 2²) + ½(pi × 1²)

= 2pi + ½pi

= 5pi/2 in²

Perimeter:

½(2pi × r1) + ½(2pi × r2) + r1

½(2pi × 2) + ½(2pi × 1) + 2

2pi + pi + 2

3pi + 2

H 24 inches The volume of a cylinder can be found by using the formula v Bh. Which expression can be used to determine B, the area of the base of this hatbox in square inches? (24) H 82.12 J 122.8

Answers

The volume a cylinder is v=(area of base)h and since the area of the base is πr², you can write the equation a v=πr²h.  Since the problem wants us to find what be is in the equation of a cylinder as v=Bh, we know that B=πr².  The problem gave us the diameter of the circle so we no the radius is going to be the diameter (24) divided by 2 which equals 12.  therefore B=12²π.

we need to calculate the value of 27/32 divided by 7/8.

twenty seven by thirty two divided by seven by eight.

Here the two numbers are fractions. One fraction is divided by other fraction.

(27/32)/(7/8)

The division turns to multiplication when denominator fraction is taken to numerator.

27/32 × 8/7

twenty seven by thirty two times of eight by seven.

27/4 × 1/7

When 27/4  is multiplied with 1/7

We get 27/28.

Hence 27/28 is the answer for 27/32 divided by 7/8.
