Question 174813: hi i have a geometry investigation to do about the equation for one interior angle of a regular polygon and i put the points for the number of sides to the measure of one angle in my calculator(3 sides=60 degrees, 5 sides= 108 degrees, etc. from 3 to 8 sides) and then went to stat calc and did the quad regression. I got an equation of y=-2.78x^2+44.93x-48.02. One of the questions is How many degrees is one interior angle of a regular 100-gon. So, i put in 100 for x but get a negative number. Please get back to me asap!
Thanks!!

Question 183048: I have been giving a difficult question and it may be hard to explain because im not sure how to show the irregular shape i have been giving.But i have 1 rectangle that is 8m in base and 25m in height. Then i have another rectangle that is 10m in base and 8m in height and on the other side is 15 m. There is also a small rectangle that is only 6m in base and the onther rectangle that is next to it is 10m i height and one mre that is 6m in base. In case you are confused could you tell me please how to show a irregular shape so i can place the numbers. Thank you
