How do I convert radians to degrees? Is it pi/180 or 180/pi? I get them confused! Thanks

Degrees = radians * 180/pi

It could be either one, depending on whether you intend to multiply or divide.

When you convert, just remember that degrees ==> less radians,
and radians ==> more degrees. Then you can always check the
results, and make sure that you used the right conversion factor
in the right direction.

Is 7(x+2y) the equivalent of 14x + 14y

ryzh [129]

Answer:

the expressions are not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x+2y) (distribute 7 into the parentheses)

= x(7) + 2y(7)

= (7x + 14y) ≠ (14x + 14y)

hence the expressions are not equivalent

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the exterior angles of a 4 sided polygon is 360

139+ 6x+9x+2x = 360

Combine like terms

139+17x=360

Subtract 139 from each side

17x = 360-139

17x = 221

Divide each side by 17

17x/17 = 221/17

x = 13

Find the value of y.

Phoenix [80]

$\boxed{y=6\sqrt{3}}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

For a better understanding of the problem I've built up two triangles from the given triangular shape. So these two triangles are similar. Therefore, we can solve this problem by using ratios and corresponding sides in this way:

$\frac{x}{3}=\frac{12}{x} \\ \\ x^2=36 \\ \\ x=\sqrt{36} \\ \\ x=6$
