Standardized text Example C. Definition of Chord
D. Transitive Property
A regular hexagon is drawn in a circle as part of a
logo for an advertisement. If opposite vertices are Answer
connected by line segments, what is the measure
of angle P in degrees? Standardized text Example
A ADVERTISING
A logo for an advertising campaign is a pentagon
that has five congruent central angles. Determine
P whether A
B
A. yes
B. no Z P
C. cannot be determined
Since connecting the opposite vertices of a regular
hexagon divides the hexagon into six congruent S T
triangles, each central angle will be congruent. The
measure of each angle is 360 ÷ 6 or 60.
