does anybody have yahoo that can help me with geometry?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just post ur question here... n people will help you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can't cuz i cant draw it on here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm.. what does the problem says?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

finding the value of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but is it on a square or triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

neither i dont know what this shape is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how many sides does it has?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it's a pentagon... try to explain it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay.. well in one corner it has (10x+3), another corner has (9x-3), another one has (4x+2), another has (12x-9), and the last corner has (8x-12)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are they in the corner or sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the corners

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there more info? or just find the value of x? if they'r in the corner that means u have to find the values of the angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all it says is to find the value of x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question rly is it area or perimeter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the sum of the angles of a pentagon is 540 so i add all the values u gave me: 8x-12+12x-9+4x+2+9x-3+10x+3=540 33x-19=540 33x=521 x=15.78787878.. but i dont know if you are looking for the area or perimeter..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well its got the degree symbol behind all the values

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh ok, so just copy what i typed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):
