Answer:

∠E = 150°

Step-by-step explanation:

All sides of the convex pentagon ABCDE are of equal length, and ∠A = ∠B = 90°. What is the degree measure of ∠E?

Solution:

A pentagon is a polygon with five sides and five angles. For a regular polygon, all the sides are equal and each angle is 108°.

Since ∠A and ∠B are right angles, and AE = BC = AB = CE. Therefore ABCE is a square. This means ∠AEC = 90°

Also triangle CDE is equilateral because all sides of the triangle are equal, hence ∠DEC = 60°.

Therefore ∠E = ∠AEC + ∠DEC = 90° + 60°

∠E = 150°

If two or more polygons are congruent, which statement must be true about the polygons? Read all of the choices before deciding.
hodyreva [135]
The best correct answer is option E. If two or more polygons are congruent, then rigid transformations can be used to map one polygon onto the other. <span>Two figures are said to be congruent when they have the same shape and size or if one object is a mirror image of the other object.</span>

16x^2-24x+7=0 equation and/or inequalities
Ivenika [448]
It is quadratic equation.
First we have find delta given by formula: delta=b^{2}-4ac
where our 
a=16
b=-24
c=7
so, delta=24^{2}-4*16*7=128
Because delta is positive, there is real results.
Now we can use next formula x=\frac{-b+ \sqrt{delta} }{2a}
, to find roots (results, 2 results because its quadratic equation and delta is greater than 0)
x1=\frac{24+ \sqrt{128} }{2*16} = \frac{3+ \sqrt{2} }{4}
x2=\frac{24- \sqrt{128} }{2*16} = \frac{3- \sqrt{2} }{4}

S = d/t

st = d

t = d/s

The time going is t1.
The time returning is t2.
The total time is 4 hours, so we have t1 + t2 = 4

The speed of the current is c.
The speed going is 9 + c.
The speed returning is 9 - c.

t1 = 16/(9 + c)

t2 = 16/(9 - c)

t1 + t2 = 16/(9 + c) + 16/(9 - c)

4 = 16/(9 - c) + 16/(9 + c)

1 = 4/(9 - c) + 4/(9 + c)

(9 + c)(9 - c) = 4(9 - c) + 4(9 + c)

81 - c^2 = 36 - 4c + 36 + 4c

81 - c^2 = 72

c^2 = 9

c^2 - 9 = 0

(c + 3)(c - 3) = 0

c + 3 = 0   or   c - 3 = 0

c = -3   or   c = 3

We discard the negative answer, and we get c = 3.

The speed of the current is 3 mph.

Type the correct answer in the box. Round your answer to the thousandth place.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is 19.338% (Rounding to the next thousandth place)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Probability that carbon emissions from the company’s factory exceed the permissible level = 35% = 0.35

Accuracy of the test of emissions level = 85% = 0.85

2. The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is?

These two events, carbon emissions from the company’s factory and the accuracy of the test are independent events, therefore:

Probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level = 1 - 0.35 = 0.65

Probability that the test predicts the opposite to be true = 0..35 * 0.85 = 0.2975 (The opposite is that the carbon emissions from the company exceed the permissible level)

Probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is:

0.65 * 0.2975 = 0.193375

The probability that carbon emissions from the factory are within the permissible level and the test predicts the opposite to be true is 19.338% (Rounding to the next thousandth place

Galina-37 [17]
The answers are as follows:
1. Triangles are often used to build different types of support structures because of its beneficial properties. Triangles is rigid in shape and it has strength. When force is applied to the side of a triangle, it can not shift into another shape, this is because its sides and angles are fixed. 
2. The properties of triangle that make it a desirable geometric shape for building support structures is its fixed sides, fixed angles, rigidity and strength. Triangles are the strongest shapes and they are stable. Thus, triangle can be easily fix together to provide strength and stability over a wide area.
3. There are different types of triangles, these include: equilateral triangle, scalene, isosceles, right triangle, obtuse and acute. Of all these triangles, the best triangle is equilateral triangle.  
4. Triangle is preferred over other types of polygon because, it is the strongest. The other polygons can be bent into different other forms that are not regular polygon, but a triangle always retains its shape and can not be deformed.
