The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is $1440^\circ$ . What is the measure, in degrees, of one exterior angle of this polygon?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 36

Cevap

The measure of one exterior angle of the polygon is

36^\circ

.

The sum of the interior angles of an

n

-sided polygon is given by

(n-2) \times 180^\circ

. Setting

(n-2) \times 180^\circ = 1440^\circ

gives

n-2 = 8

, so the polygon has

n = 10

sides (a decagon). The measure of each exterior angle of a regular polygon is

\frac{360^\circ}{n} = \frac{360^\circ}{10} = 36^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the equation for the sum of interior angles of an

n

-sided polygon.

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ = 1440^\circ

The sum of interior angles of any convex

n

-sided polygon is

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

.

2

Solve for

n

, the number of sides.

n - 2 = \frac{1440}{180} = 8 \implies n = 10

Dividing the interior angle sum by

180^\circ

gives

n - 2

.

3

Calculate the measure of one exterior angle.

Exterior angle

= \frac{360^\circ}{10} = 36^\circ

The sum of exterior angles of any convex polygon is

360^\circ

, so each exterior angle of a regular polygon with

n

sides is

\frac{360^\circ}{n}

.

Cevap: 48

Cevap

The value of

x

is 48.

For a pentagon (

n = 5

), the sum of interior angles is

(5 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 540^\circ

. Summing the five given interior angle expressions yields

10x + 60

. Equating

10x + 60 = 540

gives

10x = 480

, which solves to

x = 48

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the sum of interior angles of a 5-sided polygon (pentagon)

Sum

= (5 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 3 \times 180^\circ = 540^\circ

The formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon with

n

sides is

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

.

2

Sum the given algebraic expressions for the interior angles

(2x + 10) + (x + 25) + (3x - 15) + (2x + 30) + (2x + 10) = 10x + 60

Combine like terms for the

x

terms and constant terms.

3

Equate the sum of expressions to

540^\circ

and solve for

x

10x + 60 = 540 \implies 10x = 480 \implies x = 48

Subtract 60 from both sides and divide by 10 to isolate

In a regular polygon, the measure of each interior angle is $132^\circ$ greater than the measure of each exterior angle. How many sides does this polygon have?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 15

Cevap

The polygon has 15 sides.

Since the interior angle

I

and exterior angle

E

of a regular polygon sum to

180^\circ

(

I + E = 180^\circ

) and their given difference is

I - E = 132^\circ

, subtracting the difference equation from the sum equation gives

2E = 48^\circ

, which simplifies to

E = 24^\circ

. The number of sides is

n = \frac{360^\circ}{E} = \frac{360^\circ}{24^\circ} = 15

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the linear pair equation for interior and exterior angles

I + E = 180^\circ

An interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle at any vertex of a polygon lie on a straight line and sum to

180^\circ

.

2

Set up the given condition equation

I - E = 132^\circ

The question states that each interior angle is

132^\circ

greater than each exterior angle.

3

Solve for the exterior angle

E

E = 24^\circ

Subtracting

I - E = 132^\circ

from

I + E = 180^\circ

yields

2E = 48^\circ

, giving

E = 24^\circ

.

4

Calculate the number of sides

n

n = 15

The sum of all exterior angles of any convex polygon is

360^\circ

, so

n = \frac{360^\circ}{E} = \frac{360^\circ}{24^\circ} = 15

.

The locus of a point

P

that subtends a

90^\circ

\frac{y-2}{x-1} \times \frac{y-6}{x-5} = -1

, which simplifies to

x^2 + y^2 - 6x - 8y + 17 = 0

Apply the perpendicularity condition for the line segments

AP

and

BP

Gradient of

AP = \frac{y - 2}{x - 1}

. Since

\angle APB = 90^\circ

, their product must be

The area of the trapezium is

44\text{ cm}^2

.

Projecting the top base of length

8\text{ cm}

onto the bottom base of length

14\text{ cm}

leaves a difference of

6\text{ cm}

, which is divided equally into two

3\text{ cm}

segments on either side. Using the Pythagorean theorem with the non-parallel side (

5\text{ cm}

) and the base segment (

3\text{ cm}

) gives a height of

4\text{ cm}

. The area is then calculated as

\frac{1}{2} \times (14 + 8) \times 4 = 44\text{ cm}^2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the projection segment length on the longer base

x = \frac{14 - 8}{2} = 3\text{ cm}

Since the trapezium is isosceles, dropping perpendiculars from both ends of the top base creates two identical right-angled triangles at the sides.

2

Calculate the perpendicular height using the Pythagorean theorem

h = \sqrt{5^2 - 3^2} = \sqrt{16} = 4\text{ cm}

The slant side (

3

Calculate the area of the trapezium

\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2}(14 + 8) \times 4 = 44\text{ cm}^2

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The numerical value of

10 \sin \theta

is 8.

Using the standard fundamental identity

\sec^2 \theta - \tan^2 \theta = 1

, we factor it into

(\sec \theta + \tan \theta)(\sec \theta - \tan \theta) = 1

. Substituting the given value

\sec \theta + \tan \theta = 3

gives

\sec \theta - \tan \theta = \frac{1}{3}

. Solving these linear equations yields

\sec \theta = \frac{5}{3}

(so

\cos \theta = \frac{3}{5}

) and

\tan \theta = \frac{4}{3}

. Using

\sin \theta = \tan \theta \cdot \cos \theta

, we find

\sin \theta = \frac{4}{5} = 0.8

Cevap: $\{30^\circ, 90^\circ, 150^\circ\}$

Cevap

The correct set of solutions is \{30^\circ, 90^\circ, 150^\circ\}.

Using the identity

\sin 2x = 2\sin x \cos x

, the equation becomes

2\sin x \cos x - \cos x = 0

. Factoring out

\cos x

gives

\cos x(2\sin x - 1) = 0

. Setting each factor to zero yields

\cos x = 0

(giving

x = 90^\circ

) and

\sin x = \frac{1}{2}

(giving

x = 30^\circ

Cevap

The area of the circle is

154\text{ cm}^2

.

First, find the radius from the circumference:

C = 2\pi r \implies 44 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r \implies r = 7\text{ cm}

. Then compute the area:

A = \pi r^2 = \frac{22}{7} \times 7^2 = 154\text{ cm}^2

. Therefore, the value

154\text{ cm}^2

is correct.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the radius of the circle using the circumference formula

r = 7\text{ cm}

The formula for circumference is

C = 2\pi r

. Substituting

C = 44

and

\pi = \frac{22}{7}

yields

44 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r

, which simplifies to

\frac{44}{7}r = 44

, so

r = 7\text{ cm}

.

2

Calculate the area using the area formula for a circle

Area =

154\text{ cm}^2

The area formula is

A = \pi r^2

. Substituting

r = 7

and

\pi = \frac{22}{7}

gives

A = \frac{22}{7} \times 7^2 = 22 \times 7 = 154\text{ cm}^2

A composite plane figure is formed by joining a major sector of a circle of radius $14\text{ cm}$ (having a central angle of $270^\circ$ and center $O$ ) to a square $OACB$ . The vertices $A$ and $B$ of the square lie on the circle such that $OA$ and $OB$ serve as the bounding radii of the major sector. What is the total area of the combined figure in $\text{cm}^2$ ? (Take $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$ )

Cevap: $658\text{ cm}^2$

Cevap

658\text{ cm}^2

The total area of the composite figure is the sum of the non-overlapping regions: the major sector of central angle

270^\circ

(

462\text{ cm}^2

) and the square of side length

14\text{ cm}

(

196\text{ cm}^2

), giving

462 + 196 = 658\text{ cm}^2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the area of the major sector of central angle

270^\circ

and radius

14\text{ cm}

.

\text{Area}_{\text{sector}} = \frac{270^\circ}{360^\circ} \times \pi r^2 = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14^2 = \frac{3}{4} \times 616 = 462\text{ cm}^2

The major sector covers

\frac{270}{360} = \frac{3}{4}

of the full circle.

2

Calculate the area of the square

OACB

with side length

s = OA = 14\text{ cm}

Find the equation of the locus of a point $P(x, y)$ that moves such that its distance from the fixed point $(3, 0)$ is always equal to its perpendicular distance from the vertical line $x = -3$ .

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: y^2 = 12x; y^2 - 12x = 0; y^2=12x; y^2 - 12x = 0

Cevap

The equation of the locus is

y^2 = 12x

(or

y^2 - 12x = 0

).

Equating the distance from

P(x, y)

to

(3, 0)

, which is

\sqrt{(x - 3)^2 + y^2}

, and the distance from

P(x, y)

to

x = -3

, which is

|x + 3|

, squaring both sides gives

x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 = x^2 + 6x + 9

. Subtracting

x^2 + 9

from both sides yields

y^2 = 12x

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the distance from

P(x, y)

to the point

(3, 0)

using the distance formula.

d_1 = \sqrt{(x - 3)^2 + (y - 0)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 3)^2 + y^2}

The distance between two points

(x_1, y_1)

and

(x_2, y_2)

is given by

\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

.

2

Express the perpendicular distance from

P(x, y)

to the line

x = -3

.

d_2 = |x - (-3)| = |x + 3|

The perpendicular distance from a point

(x, y)

to a vertical line

x = k

is given by

|x - k|

.

3

Set the two distance expressions equal according to the locus condition.

\sqrt{(x - 3)^2 + y^2} = |x + 3|

The locus condition states that the distance to

(3, 0)

is equal to the distance to line

x = -3

.

4

Square both sides and simplify to obtain the Cartesian equation.

(x - 3)^2 + y^2 = (x + 3)^2 \implies x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 = x^2 + 6x + 9 \implies y^2 = 12x

Squaring eliminates the square root and absolute value signs, leading to the algebraic representation of the locus.

A sector of a circle of radius $6\text{ cm}$ has a total perimeter whose numerical value is equal to the numerical value of its area. What is the area of the sector, in $\text{cm}^2$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 18

Cevap

The area of the sector is

18\text{ cm}^2

.

For a sector of radius

r = 6\text{ cm}

, its total perimeter is

P = 2(6) + s = 12 + s

, where

s

is the arc length. Its area is

A = \frac{1}{2}(6)s = 3s

. Setting

P = A

gives

12 + s = 3s \implies 2s = 12 \implies s = 6\text{ cm}

. Substituting

s = 6

into the area expression gives

A = 3(6) = 18\text{ cm}^2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the perimeter and area of the sector in terms of the arc length

s

P = 2r + s = 12 + s

and

A = \frac{1}{2}rs = 3s

The total perimeter of a sector includes two straight radii plus the arc length, while its area is given by

\frac{1}{2}rs

.

2

Equate the numerical values of perimeter and area

12 + s = 3s

The question specifies that the numerical value of the total perimeter equals the numerical value of its area.

3

Solve for the arc length

s

2s = 12 \implies s = 6\text{ cm}

Subtracting

s

from both sides yields

2s = 12

, so

s = 6\text{ cm}

.

4

Calculate the sector area

A = 3(6) = 18\text{ cm}^2

Substituting

s = 6

into

A = 3s

yields an area of

18\text{ cm}^2

.

A rhombus has diagonals of lengths $12\text{ cm}$ and $16\text{ cm}$ . What is the perimeter of the rhombus in $\text{cm}$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 40

Cevap

The perimeter of the rhombus is

40\text{ cm}

.

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, dividing the rhombus into four congruent right-angled triangles. Each triangle has legs measuring

6\text{ cm}

and

8\text{ cm}

. Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse (which is the side length of the rhombus) is

\sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{100} = 10\text{ cm}

. Since all four sides of a rhombus are equal, the perimeter is

4 \times 10 = 40\text{ cm}

.

Cevap: $110^\circ$

Cevap

110^\circ

Since alternate interior angles are equal,

4x - 10 = 2x + 30

, yielding

x = 20

. Thus,

\angle APQ = 70^\circ

. Because

\angle APQ

and

\angle BPQ

are adjacent angles on straight line

AB

, their sum is

180^\circ

, giving

\angle BPQ = 110^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the equation for alternate interior angles.

4x - 10 = 2x + 30

Alternate interior angles formed by a transversal cutting parallel lines are equal.

2

Solve the linear equation for

x

.

2x = 40 \implies x = 20

Subtract

2x

and add

10

to both sides.

3

Calculate the measure of

\angle APQ

Cevap: $1\text{ m}$

Cevap

The width of the path is

1\text{ m}

.

The total outer garden area is

12 \times 8 = 96\text{ m}^2

. Subtracting the path width

x

from both ends gives inner dimensions

(12 - 2x)

and

(8 - 2x)

. Equating the inner area

(12 - 2x)(8 - 2x) = 60

yields

x^2 - 10x + 9 = 0

. The realistic physical solution is

x = 1\text{ m}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the inner dimensions in terms of path width

x

Length =

(12 - 2x)\text{ m}

, Width =

(8 - 2x)\text{ m}

The path reduces each side dimension by

x

at both ends.

2

Set up the area equation for the inner rectangular garden

(12 - 2x)(8 - 2x) = 60

The area of a rectangle is length multiplied by width.

3

Expand and simplify the quadratic equation

96 - 40x + 4x^2 = 60 \implies 4x^2 - 40x + 36 = 0 \implies x^2 - 10x + 9 = 0

Divide the whole equation by 4 to simplify quadratic terms.

4

Solve for

x

by factoring

(x - 1)(x - 9) = 0 \implies x = 1

or

x = 9

Since the width

x

cannot exceed half of the smaller side (

x < 4\text{ m}

),

x = 9

is extraneous.
