A convex polygon has nn sides. The interior angles of the polygon form an arithmetic progression with a common difference of dd^\circ, where dd is a positive integer. If the smallest interior angle of the polygon measures 100100^\circ, what is the maximum possible value of nn?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The maximum possible value of nn is 8.
The correct answer is 8 because we set the sum of the interior angles (n2)×180(n-2) \times 180^\circ equal to the sum of the arithmetic progression n2[200+(n1)d]\frac{n}{2}[200 + (n-1)d]. Solving for (n1)d(n-1)d gives (n1)d=160720n(n-1)d = 160 - \frac{720}{n}. Since the polygon is convex, the largest angle 100+(n1)d100 + (n-1)d must be strictly less than 180180^\circ, which means (n1)d<80(n-1)d < 80^\circ. Substituting the expression yields 160720n<80160 - \frac{720}{n} < 80, which simplifies to n<9n < 9. Since nn must be an integer, the maximum possible value of nn is 8. For n=8n = 8, the common difference d=10d = 10 is a positive integer, satisfying all conditions.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Express the sum of the interior angles using the polygon angle sum formula and the arithmetic progression formula.
The sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon with nn sides is (n2)×180(n-2) \times 180^\circ. The sum of the angles in arithmetic progression with first term 100100^\circ and common difference dd^\circ is n2[2(100)+(n1)d]=100n+n(n1)d2\frac{n}{2}[2(100) + (n-1)d] = 100n + \frac{n(n-1)d}{2}.
This sets up the system relating the geometry of the polygon to the algebraic progression of its angles.
2
Equate the two expressions and solve for the quantity (n1)d(n-1)d.
100n+n(n1)d2=180n360    n(n1)d2=80n360    (n1)d=160720n100n + \frac{n(n-1)d}{2} = 180n - 360 \implies \frac{n(n-1)d}{2} = 80n - 360 \implies (n-1)d = 160 - \frac{720}{n}.
This isolates the quantity (n1)d(n-1)d, which represents the difference between the largest and smallest angles.
3
Apply the convexity constraint that every interior angle must be strictly less than 180180^\circ.
The largest angle is the last term of the progression: 100+(n1)d100 + (n-1)d. For the polygon to be convex, this angle must be strictly less than 180180^\circ. Therefore, 100+(n1)d<180    (n1)d<80100 + (n-1)d < 180 \implies (n-1)d < 80. Substituting (n1)d=160720n(n-1)d = 160 - \frac{720}{n} gives 160720n<80    80<720n    n<9160 - \frac{720}{n} < 80 \implies 80 < \frac{720}{n} \implies n < 9.
A convex polygon cannot have any interior angles greater than or equal to 180180^\circ.
4
Identify the maximum integer value of nn and verify that a positive integer common difference dd exists.
Since n<9n < 9 and nn must be an integer, the maximum possible value is n=8n = 8. For n=8n = 8, we calculate (81)d=1607208    7d=70    d=10(8-1)d = 160 - \frac{720}{8} \implies 7d = 70 \implies d = 10. Since d=10d = 10 is a positive integer, the solution is valid.
This ensures the result satisfies all constraints, including that the common difference is a positive integer.

The system of equations is solved by setting the equations equal to each other, yielding the quadratic equation x24x5=0x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0. Solving for xx gives x=5x = 5 and x=1x = -1. Substituting these values into the linear equation gives the y-coordinates 1414 and 22. The sum of these y-coordinates is 14+2=1614 + 2 = 16.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Equate the linear and quadratic equations to find the x-values of the intersection points.
x22x1=2x+4x^2 - 2x - 1 = 2x + 4
At the points of intersection, the y-values of both equations must be equal.
2
Rearrange the equation to standard quadratic form.
x24x5=0x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0
Grouping all terms on one side allows the quadratic equation to be solved.
3
Factor the quadratic equation to find the x-coordinates.
(x5)(x+1)=0(x - 5)(x + 1) = 0, so x=5x = 5 or x=1x = -1
The numbers that multiply to 5-5 and add up to 4-4 are 5-5 and 11.
4
Substitute the x-coordinates into the linear equation to find the y-coordinates.
For x=5x = 5: y=2(5)+4=14y = 2(5) + 4 = 14. For x=1x = -1: y=2(1)+4=2y = 2(-1) + 4 = 2.
Evaluating the linear equation is simpler than evaluating the quadratic equation.
5
Find the sum of the y-coordinates.
14+2=1614 + 2 = 16
The question asks for the sum of the y-coordinates of the two points of intersection.

Which of the following is an equation that represents Pine Street?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4x+3y=54x + 3y = 5

Cevap

4x+3y=54x + 3y = 5
The slope of Oak Street is 34\frac{3}{4}. The perpendicular line representing Pine Street must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of 34\frac{3}{4}, which is 43-\frac{4}{3}. Using the point-slope form with the point (2,1)(2, -1), we get y(1)=43(x2)y - (-1) = -\frac{4}{3}(x - 2). Simplifying this yields y+1=43x+83y + 1 = -\frac{4}{3}x + \frac{8}{3}, which becomes y=43x+53y = -\frac{4}{3}x + \frac{5}{3}. Multiplying the entire equation by 3 and moving the xx term to the left side gives the standard form equation 4x+3y=54x + 3y = 5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Find the slope of Oak Street by converting its equation to slope-intercept form (y=mx+by = mx + b).
The equation 3x4y=123x - 4y = 12 becomes 4y=3x+12-4y = -3x + 12, which simplifies to y=34x3y = \frac{3}{4}x - 3. The slope of Oak Street is 34\frac{3}{4}.
To find the slope of a perpendicular line, we must first determine the slope of the original line.
2
Determine the perpendicular slope of Pine Street by taking the negative reciprocal of Oak Street's slope.
The negative reciprocal of 34\frac{3}{4} is 43-\frac{4}{3}.
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other.
3
Use the point-slope formula yy1=m(xx1)y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) with the point (2,1)(2, -1) and the perpendicular slope 43-\frac{4}{3} to find the equation of Pine Street.
Substituting the values gives y(1)=43(x2)y - (-1) = -\frac{4}{3}(x - 2), which simplifies to y+1=43x+83y + 1 = -\frac{4}{3}x + \frac{8}{3}.
The point-slope formula allows us to write the equation of a line given its slope and a point it passes through.
4
Convert the equation to standard form (Ax+By=CAx + By = C).
Subtract 1 from both sides: y=43x+8333y=43x+53y = -\frac{4}{3}x + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{3}{3} \Rightarrow y = -\frac{4}{3}x + \frac{5}{3}. Multiply the entire equation by 3: 3y=4x+53y = -4x + 5. Add 4x4x to both sides: 4x+3y=54x + 3y = 5.
Converting to standard form matches the format of the options provided in the question.

Cevap: 150

Cevap

The measure of the largest interior angle of the octagon is 150150^\circ.
The total sum of the interior angles of an octagon is (82)×180=1080(8-2) \times 180^\circ = 1080^\circ. The sum of the five given angles is 5×144=7205 \times 144^\circ = 720^\circ, leaving a sum of 1080720=3601080^\circ - 720^\circ = 360^\circ for the remaining three angles. Since these three angles are in the ratio 3:4:53:4:5, we set 3x+4x+5x=3603x + 4x + 5x = 360^\circ, yielding 12x=36012x = 360^\circ and x=30x = 30^\circ. The largest of these three angles is 5×30=1505 \times 30^\circ = 150^\circ. Comparing 150150^\circ to the other angles of the octagon (which are 144144^\circ, 9090^\circ, and 120120^\circ), the largest interior angle is 150150^\circ.

Calculate the total sum of the interior angles of the octagon.
The total sum is 10801080^\circ.
The sum of the interior angles of any convex polygon with nn sides is given by (n2)×180(n - 2) \times 180^\circ. For an octagon, n=8n = 8, so the sum is (82)×180=6×180=1080(8 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 6 \times 180^\circ = 1080^\circ.
2
Calculate the sum of the five given congruent angles.
The sum of these five angles is 720720^\circ.
Since five angles each measure 144144^\circ, their combined sum is 5×144=7205 \times 144^\circ = 720^\circ.
3
Determine the sum of the remaining three interior angles.
The sum of the remaining angles is 360360^\circ.
Subtracting the sum of the five congruent angles from the total sum of the octagon's interior angles yields the sum of the remaining three angles: 1080720=3601080^\circ - 720^\circ = 360^\circ.
4
Use the ratio 3:4:53:4:5 to find the measures of the remaining three angles.
The measures of the three angles are 9090^\circ, 120120^\circ, and 150150^\circ.
Let the measures of the remaining three angles be 3x3x, 4x4x, and 5x5x. Their sum is 3x+4x+5x=12x=3603x + 4x + 5x = 12x = 360^\circ, which gives x=30x = 30^\circ. The largest of these three angles is 5×30=1505 \times 30^\circ = 150^\circ.
5
Compare the measures of all interior angles of the octagon to find the largest one.
The largest angle is 150150^\circ.
The octagon's interior angles consist of five angles of 144144^\circ, and three angles of 9090^\circ, 120120^\circ, and 150150^\circ. Comparing these values, 150150^\circ is the largest measure.

Cevap: 1010

Cevap

The distance between point BB and point CC is 1010.
First, we find the coordinates of point B(x,y)B(x, y) using the midpoint formula. Since M(5,6)M(5, 6) is the midpoint between A(1,9)A(1, 9) and B(x,y)B(x, y), we set up the equations: 5=1+x25 = \frac{1+x}{2} which simplifies to 10=1+x10 = 1+x and x=9x = 9; and 6=9+y26 = \frac{9+y}{2} which simplifies to 12=9+y12 = 9+y and y=3y = 3. Thus, point BB is (9,3)(9, 3). Next, we apply the distance formula to find the distance between B(9,3)B(9, 3) and C(3,5)C(3, -5): d=(93)2+(3(5))2=62+82=36+64=100=10d = \sqrt{(9-3)^2 + (3-(-5))^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{36+64} = \sqrt{100} = 10.

Cevap: 828\sqrt{2}

828\sqrt{2}
The correct answer is 828\sqrt{2}. Since points BB, DD, and CC lie on a straight line, the adjacent angles ADB\angle ADB and ADC\angle ADC must sum to 180180^\circ. Subtracting the given angle measure shows that ADB=180135=45\angle ADB = 180^\circ - 135^\circ = 45^\circ. In the right triangle ABDABD, since B=90\angle B = 90^\circ and ADB=45\angle ADB = 45^\circ, the triangle is a 45459045^\circ-45^\circ-90^\circ special right triangle. Using the ratio of side lengths for this triangle type, the leg ABAB is equal to the hypotenuse ADAD divided by 2\sqrt{2}, which simplifies to AB=82=42AB = \frac{8}{\sqrt{2}} = 4\sqrt{2}. Next, looking at the larger right triangle ABCABC, the angle at CC is given as 3030^\circ, which makes ABC\triangle ABC a 30609030^\circ-60^\circ-90^\circ special right triangle. In this type of triangle, the hypotenuse ACAC is twice the length of the shorter leg ABAB, which is opposite the 3030^\circ angle. Multiplying the length of ABAB by 22 yields AC=2×42=82AC = 2 \times 4\sqrt{2} = 8\sqrt{2} units.

The measures of the five exterior angles of a convex pentagon are in the ratio 2:3:4:4:52:3:4:4:5. What is the measure of the largest interior angle of this pentagon?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 140140^\circ

Cevap

The measure of the largest interior angle of the pentagon is 140140^\circ.
The correct answer is 140140^\circ. The sum of the exterior angles of any convex polygon is 360360^\circ. For a pentagon with exterior angles in the ratio 2:3:4:4:52:3:4:4:5, the sum of the ratio parts is 2+3+4+4+5=182+3+4+4+5=18 parts. Each part is equal to 360/18=20360^\circ / 18 = 20^\circ. The smallest exterior angle has 22 parts, which measures 2×20=402 \times 20^\circ = 40^\circ. Since each interior angle is supplementary to its corresponding exterior angle, the largest interior angle corresponds to the smallest exterior angle. Thus, the largest interior angle measures 18040=140180^\circ - 40^\circ = 140^\circ.

The correct answer is 162162 degrees. The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is 720720^\circ. Subtracting the two right angles (180180^\circ total) leaves a remaining sum of 540540^\circ. The ratio of the remaining four angles is 4:5:5:64:5:5:6, which can be represented as 4x,5x,5x,6x4x, 5x, 5x, 6x, summing to 20x=54020x = 540. Solving for the multiplier gives x=27x = 27. The largest angle is 6(27)=1626(27) = 162^\circ, which is also greater than the two 9090^\circ angles.
The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is (62)×180=720(6-2) \times 180^\circ = 720^\circ. Subtracting the two right angles (180180^\circ) gives a remaining sum of 540540^\circ for the other four angles. Let these four angles be 4x,5x,5x,4x, 5x, 5x, and 6x6x. Their sum is 20x=54020x = 540, which solves to x=27x = 27. The largest angle is 6x=6(27)=1626x = 6(27) = 162^\circ, which is also larger than the two 9090^\circ angles.

1
Calculate the sum of all interior angles of a convex hexagon.
The sum is (62)×180=720(6-2) \times 180^\circ = 720^\circ.
The sum of the interior angles of any convex nn-gon is given by (n2)×180(n-2) \times 180^\circ.
2
Subtract the sum of the two right angles from the total sum.
The remaining sum is 720180=540720^\circ - 180^\circ = 540^\circ.
Two right angles contribute 90+90=18090^\circ + 90^\circ = 180^\circ to the total.
3
Set up a linear equation representing the ratio of the remaining four angles.
The equation is 4x+5x+5x+6x=5404x + 5x + 5x + 6x = 540, which simplifies to 20x=54020x = 540, yielding x=27x = 27.
The angles are proportional to the parts of the ratio, and their sum must equal the remaining 540540^\circ.
4
Calculate the largest angle from the ratio and compare with the right angles.
The largest angle is 6×27=1626 \times 27 = 162^\circ.
The largest term in the ratio is 66, and the resulting angle 162162^\circ is larger than both 9090^\circ and the other calculated angles (108108^\circ and 135135^\circ).

The slope of segment PQPQ is 6241=43\frac{6 - 2}{4 - 1} = \frac{4}{3}. Since adjacent sides of a square are perpendicular, the line containing QRQR is perpendicular to PQPQ and passes through Q(4,6)Q(4, 6). The slope of this perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of 43\frac{4}{3}, which is 34-\frac{3}{4}. Using the slope-intercept form y=mx+by = mx + b with point Q(4,6)Q(4, 6), we substitute the values: 6=34(4)+b6=3+bb=96 = -\frac{3}{4}(4) + b \Rightarrow 6 = -3 + b \Rightarrow b = 9.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 40

Cevap

The perimeter of the trapezoid is 40.
The perimeter of the trapezoid is found by summing the lengths of its four sides. Two sides are vertical (AD of length 10 and BC of length 5), one side is horizontal (AB of length 12), and the final side is skewed (CD of length 13, found using the distance formula). Summing these gives 10 + 5 + 12 + 13 = 40.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the lengths of the vertical sides AD and BC
AD = 10, BC = 5
Since vertices A(-5, -4) and D(-5, 6) share the same x-coordinate of -5, the side AD is vertical. Its length is the difference in their y-coordinates: 6 - (-4) = 10. Similarly, vertices B(7, -4) and C(7, 1) share the same x-coordinate of 7, so the side BC is vertical. Its length is the difference in their y-coordinates: 1 - (-4) = 5.
2
Calculate the length of the horizontal side AB
AB = 12
Since vertices A(-5, -4) and B(7, -4) share the same y-coordinate of -4, the side AB is horizontal. Its length is the difference in their x-coordinates: 7 - (-5) = 12.
3
Calculate the length of the skewed side CD using the distance formula
CD = 13
Using the coordinates of C(7, 1) and D(-5, 6), the distance is calculated as: CD = \sqrt{(-5 - 7)^2 + (6 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(-12)^2 + (5)^2} = \sqrt{144 + 25} = \sqrt{169} = 13.
4
Sum the lengths of all sides to find the perimeter

3
Multiply both sides of the inequality by 6.
4x+1512-4x + 15 \ge 12
Multiplying by a positive number isolates the numerator without changing the direction of the inequality sign.

Solving linear inequalities requires applying standard algebraic operations while remembering to reverse the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number.

The correct answer is 88. First, find the slope of Runway A by rewriting 4x3y=124x - 3y = 12 as y=43x4y = \frac{4}{3}x - 4, which gives a slope of 43\frac{4}{3}. The slope of Runway B must be the negative reciprocal, 34-\frac{3}{4}. Using the given yy-intercept of 77, the equation for Runway B is y=34x+7y = -\frac{3}{4}x + 7. Substituting the point (p,1)(p, 1) gives 1=34p+71 = -\frac{3}{4}p + 7. Subtracting 77 from both sides yields 6=34p-6 = -\frac{3}{4}p. Multiplying both sides by 43-\frac{4}{3} gives p=8p = 8.

Finding the slope of the first line is necessary to determine the slope of any perpendicular line.
2
Calculate the perpendicular slope (m2m_2) for Runway B by taking the negative reciprocal of the slope of Runway A (m1m_1).
The perpendicular slope is m2=1m1=34m_2 = -\frac{1}{m_1} = -\frac{3}{4}.
Perpendicular lines in a coordinate plane have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other.

Write the equation of Runway B using its slope m2=34m_2 = -\frac{3}{4} and its yy-intercept of 77.
The equation of Runway B is y=34x+7y = -\frac{3}{4}x + 7.
The slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+by = mx + b, where mm is the slope and bb is the yy-intercept.

Substitute the point (p,1)(p, 1) into the equation of Runway B and solve for pp.
1=34p+7    6=34p    24=3p    p=81 = -\frac{3}{4}p + 7 \implies -6 = -\frac{3}{4}p \implies 24 = 3p \implies p = 8.

The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is 720720^\circ. Subtracting the three known angles (330330^\circ) leaves 390390^\circ for the remaining three angles. Using the ratio 3:4:53:4:5, the smallest of these remaining angles is calculated as 312×390=97.5\frac{3}{12} \times 390^\circ = 97.5^\circ. Since 97.597.5^\circ is smaller than the other angles (110110^\circ, 130130^\circ, 162.5162.5^\circ), it is the smallest interior angle of the hexagon. The exterior angle is supplementary to the interior angle, so it measures 18097.5=82.5180^\circ - 97.5^\circ = 82.5^\circ.

1
Calculate the sum of all interior angles of the hexagon.
The sum is (62)×180=4×180=720(6-2) \times 180^\circ = 4 \times 180^\circ = 720^\circ.
This establishes the total measure of the interior angles of a hexagon.
2
Subtract the sum of the three known interior angles from the total sum.
The remaining sum is 720(3×110)=720330=390720^\circ - (3 \times 110^\circ) = 720^\circ - 330^\circ = 390^\circ.
This determines the combined measure of the three remaining angles.
3
Determine the measures of the remaining three angles using the ratio.
Setting up the equation 3y+4y+5y=3903y + 4y + 5y = 390^\circ gives 12y=39012y = 390^\circ, or y=32.5y = 32.5^\circ. The individual angles are 3×32.5=97.53 \times 32.5^\circ = 97.5^\circ, 4×32.5=1304 \times 32.5^\circ = 130^\circ, and 5×32.5=162.55 \times 32.5^\circ = 162.5^\circ.
This finds each of the remaining interior angle measures.
4
Find the smallest interior angle and compute its supplementary exterior angle.
The smallest interior angle of the hexagon is 97.597.5^\circ. The corresponding exterior angle is 18097.5=82.5180^\circ - 97.5^\circ = 82.5^\circ.

The value of cc is 77.
Since the line L1L_1 is parallel to y=3x7y = 3x - 7, its slope is 33. The line L2L_2 is perpendicular to L1L_1, so its slope is the negative reciprocal of 33, which is 13-\frac{1}{3}. Using the point-slope formula with the point (6,5)(6, 5) yields the equation of L2L_2: y5=13(x6)y - 5 = -\frac{1}{3}(x - 6), which simplifies to y=13x+7y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 7.
