Determine The Measure Of The Interior Angle At Vertex C PLEASE HELP ASAP class=

Sagot :

Answer:

B.  120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the measures of the interior angle of a polygon with n sides:

(n - 2)180

We have a pentagon, a 5-sided polygon, so n = 5.

We first find the sum of the measures of the angles of any pentagon.

(5 - 2)180 = 3(180) = 540

From the figure, we add the measures of the 5 angles and set the sum equal to 540°.

3x + 4x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 540°

18x = 540°

Divide both sides by 18.

x = 30°

The angle at vertex C measures 4x.

4x = 4 * 30° = 120°

Answer: B.  120°
