First, work out the sum of all numbers and divide by three. 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12=78. 78/3=26. This means each part needs to equal 26. To get equal parts you need to divide the clock into thirds. 11+12+1+2=26, 5+6+7+8=26, leaving 10+9+3+4=26 in the middle.

What shapes have equal sides and equal angles?

Equilateral triangle.Also a square.Also a regular pentagon.Also any regular polygon of any number of sides.A shape with equal sides and angles is a called a regularshape.[But there are also other shapes, such as a rhombus, which has equal sides but is not a regular polygon because it does not have equal angles. There is no collective name for such "squashed" polygons".]


How many sides does a regular polygon with interior angles of 177 degrees have?

The formula for the total sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is s = (n-2)*180, where s is the total sum if the interior angles, and n is the number of sides. Since the number of sides equal the number of angles, the total sum of the interior angles is also equal to n*177 (since there are n angles and each measures 177 degrees). Setting these to equation equal to each other results in: n*177 = (n-2)*180 Distribute: 177n = 180n - 360 Subtract 180n from both sides: -3n = -360 Divide both sides by -3 n = 120 A regular polygon with interior angles of 177 has 120 sides.


Does a triangle have equal sides?

A triangle can have equal sides. This is called an equilateral triangle. Other triangles may not have equal sides.


If one diagonal of a quadrilateral bisects the other then the quadrilateral isa parallelogram?

not necessarily. because the diagonals of a trapezium also bisect each other and it is not a parallelogram. in order for the quadrilateral to become a parallelogram, the opposite angles of it must be equal, and the opposite sides must be equal too. the angles formed by the two diagonals( four in number) also must be equal if they are opposite angles not alternating angles.that's it pal

What do you have to divide by to get Pi?

Pi is an "irrational" number, which means that there are no integers that form a ratio exactly equal to pi. In other words, you cannot divide any whole number by any other whole number to get pi. 22/7 isn't too far off, and 355/113 is fairly close, but they're not exactly pi.


How did biblical times determine time?

There are two day time systems. One is called equal sized hours and the other is variable sized hours. Our clocks or a sand clock measures equal sized hours. If you call Sunrise 6 and sunset 12, then you divide the day into 12 parts on a sun clock you get variable sized hours. This quite a handy clock for peole who wake up at dawn and go to sleep shortly after dusk. You can see such a sun clock in Jerusalem. The wisest of the Torah made calculations with both clocks and the people used the sun clock.
