MQS61QJ Project 6 1. A convex n-gon has 5 times as many diagonals as sides. Fully explain how to find the value of n. In order to find the value of n, I first found the number of diagonals in a convex n-gon by applying the formula (n(n-3))/2 in which n stands for the number of sides. In a convex polygon, the number of diagonals form from a single vertex is 3 less than the number of sides, which is represented as n-3. Moreover, since there are n sides, it would give n(n - 3) diagonals. However, each diagonal has 2 ends, in other words connecting from two vertices. As a result, each diagonal would be counted twice, thus n(n - 3) must be divided by 2. Since the convex n-gon has 5 times as many diagonals as sides, the formula can be equal to 5n. Therefore the new equation would be (n(n-3))/2=5n, and by multiplying both sides by 2, the equation would become n(n-3)=10n. Then, divide both sides …show more content…

Square SGRE has perimeter 24. Points H and N lie on SE and SG respectively, such that SH = SN. Segment XA is the reflection of HN in EG. The exact value of the perimeter of HEXAGN can be expressed as a – b*sqrt(c) where a, b, and c are positive integers. Find the values of a, b, and c. In order to find the length of each side of square SGRE, I divided the perimeter 24 by 4 because a square always has 4 sides. As a result, the length of each side of square SGRE is 6. Additionally, since SH = SN, I let the length of both segments be represented as the variable x. Not only that, the lengths of ¯AR and ¯XR also be represented as x because points X and A are the reflected points of points H and N in ¯EG respectively. Therefore, the lengths¯( HE), ¯EX, ¯AG, and ¯GN must be 6 – x. The exact value of the perimeter of HEXAGN can be expressed as a - b√c, thus I added all the sides of HEXAGN in terms of x. This was because the lengths of ¯AR, ¯XR, ¯SH, and ¯SN were still unknown, but it must be true that x stand for a positive integers due to a, b, and c being positive

    When I had first approached this project, my first task was to define each of the words for more clarity as to what they meant and how they related to each other. After defining them, I decided to categorize every word plus an additional word in order to have 4 groups that all contained 5 words each. I admit that I am more of a categorical person, and group and placing things together has always worked out better for me. This part was based on my opinion as I group together words with similar themes or meanings or by how easy they could connect to each other. Simultaneously, while categorizing the words together, I was planning out how to make my actual map look presentable.
