Question
Two angles of a regular polygon are given to be
Find the value of and measure of each angle.
Hint:
A polygon whose length of all sides is equal with equal angles at each vertex is called regular polygon.
The correct answer is: 87
Explanation:
- We have been given the two sides of a regular polygon that is - (2𝑥 + 27)° 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (3𝑥 − 3)°
- We have to find the value of x and measure of each angle.
Step 1 of 1:
We know that a regulat polygon is equiangular
So,
2x + 27 = 3x - 3
x = 27 + 3
x = 30
And the value of each angle will be
= 2x + 27
= 2(30) + 27
= 87

Solve the equation. Write a reason for each step.
8(−x − 6) = −50 − 10x
Ans:- x = 1
Explanation :-
Given ,8(-x − 6) = -50-10x.
By left distributive property - 8x − 48 = - 50 -10x
Adding 48 on both sides by additive property of equality both sides remain equal.

Let f, g : R→R be defined, respectively by f(x) = x + 1, g(x) = 2x – 3. Find f + g, f – g and f(g)
f(x) = x + 1
g(x) = 2x – 3
We have to find the value of
i) f(x) + g(x)
ii) f(x) – g(x)
iii) f(g(x))
Therefore,
i) f(x) + g(x) = x + 1 + 2x – 3
= 3x – 2
ii f(x) – g(x) = x + 1 – (2x – 3)
= x + 1 – 2x + 3
= 4 – x
iii) f(g(x)) = f(2x -3)

We have to find the value of
i) f(x) + g(x)
ii) f(x) – g(x)
iii) f(g(x))
Therefore,
i) f(x) + g(x) = x + 1 + 2x – 3
= 3x – 2
ii f(x) – g(x) = x + 1 – (2x – 3)
= x + 1 – 2x + 3

Sketch a graph modelling a function for the following situation:
A dog is sleeping when he hears the cat “meow” in the next room. He quickly runs to the next room where he slowly walks around looking for the cat. When he doesn’t find the cat, he sits down and goes back to sleep. Sketch a graph of a function of the dog’s speed in terms of time.
SOL – Let dog’s speed = y
Time taken = x
Acc. to the question, dog was sleeping when time, x = 0 , speed, y = 0
Then, he quickly runs to the next room i.e. speed is increasing over time. Since he moved quickly, implies that rate of change is very high.
Then, he slowly walks around looking for the cat. i.e. there is a sudden decrease in the speed.
And then he walks around looking for the cat i.e., speed is same over time
Further, he sits down and goes back to sleep i.e. speed is 0
Since speed suddenly drops to 0, so line x = 0 which is parallel to y – axis and then line y = 0 which is parallel to x – axis and has slope = 0
