    15b = 60 x 4
    b = 16cm (diagonal)
    = √82 + 7.52
    ∴per = 4 √82 + 7.52
    = 43.86cm
  4. x2 = 7.252 – 5.252
    x = 7.252 – 5.252

    BC = 15.25 + 5 = 22.25cm
    Arc CD = 90/360 X 3.142 X 2 X 22.25
    = 34.65475
    Perimeter = AB + BC + CD + DE + EA
    = 15.25 +7.25 + 22.25 + 34.95 + 5.25
    = 84.95cm
  5. AB2 = 10– 82= 100 – 64

    n = 10
  12. Let exterior angle be x
    4x/4 = 180o/4
    x = 45o
    n=360
    Exterior angle
    n = 360/45
    = 8 sides

    1. Let ∠BDC = ø
      A2 = 52 + 82 – 2 x 5 x 8 cos ø
    2. Area of ABD
      = ½ x 8 x 10 sin 24°91
      = 40 x 0.4091
      = 16.36cm3
  14.  
    1. ∠CDF = 100-60=40o (exterior angle of a Δ)
    2. ∠BDE = 20o (DE is bisector of BDG)
      ABD = 20o (alternate angles)
  15. 4x + x – 30 = 180
    5x = 210°
    x = 42
    (x - 30)n = 360°
    12n = 360°
    n = 360°/12
    n = 30
  16. 180(n-20) = 1440
    n - 2 = 1440/180 = 8

  17. ∠PQR =∠SRT = x (Alt ∠SPQ //RS)
    ∴5x + 3x + x = 180° <’s of
    9x = 180°
    X = 20°
    ∴5 x 20 + y = 180
    y = 180 – 120 = 60
  18.  Let the interior ∠be x and exterior be y
    x + y = 180
    +
    x – y = 132
