Explain in complete sentences the steps you need to take to find the area in square centimeters of this figure.

Here is their argument. given the obtuse angle x, we make a quadrilateral abcd with ∠dab = x, and ∠abc = 90◦, and ad = bc. say the perpendicular bisector to dc meets the perpendicular bisector to ab at p. then pa = pb and pc = pd. so the triangles pad and pbc have equal sides and are congruent. thus ∠pad = ∠pbc. but pab is isosceles, hence ∠pab = ∠pba. subtracting, gives x = ∠pad−∠pab = ∠pbc −∠pba = 90◦. this is a preposterous conclusion – just where is the mistake in the "proof" and why does the argument break down there?

Aregular pentagon with a perimeter of 21 inches is dilated by a scale factor of 5/3 to create a new pentagon. what is the perimeter of the new pentagon?

Carl's candies has determined that a candy bar measuring 3 inches long has a z-score of +1 and a candy bar measuring 3.75 inches long has a z-score of +2. what is the standard deviation of the length of candy bars produced at carl's candies?
