In the figure below, the hexagon is regular.EDACBОАIf point F is rotated 60 degrees clockwise, what point does it map onto?OB• СODOE1MacBook ARTwES

Respuesta :

From the figure we have a hexagon(six-sided polygon).

Let's find where point F will map onto after a rotation of 60 degrees clockwise.

To find the point, let's find each exterior angle of the hexagon.

Apply the formula:

exterior angle = 180 - interior angle

To find the interior angle, we have:

[tex]\text{Interior angle = }\frac{(n-2)180}{n}[/tex]

Where n = 6

Thus, we have:

[tex]\text{Interior angle = }\frac{(6-2)180}{6}=\frac{(4)180}{6}=\frac{720}{6}=120\text{ degr}ees[/tex]

For the exterior angle, we have:

Exterior angle = 180 - interior angle

Exterior angle = 180 - 120 = 60 degrees

Since each exterior angle of the given polygon is 60 degrees, after point F is rotated 60 degrees clockwise, the point it will map onto will be the next point to the right.

Therefore, after a rotation 60 degrees clockwise, point F maps onto point E.

E
