Rates percentage from annual value and rates paid

8%
💡 What it's asking: Rates are a percentage of the annual value. We know both amounts, so we work backwards to find that percentage.
- Rate % = rates paid ÷ annual value × 100.
- Put in the numbers: 4800 ÷ 60 000 × 100.
- 4800 ÷ 60 000 = 0.08, and 0.08 × 100 = 8%.
✅ 8% of 60 000 = 600 × 8 = 4800, the rates paid.

වරිපනම වාර්ෂික වටිනාකමේ ප්රතිශතයකි. මුදල් දෙකම දන්නා නිසා ප්රතිශතය සොයන්න.
- වරිපනම් ප්රතිශතය = ගෙවූ වරිපනම ÷ වාර්ෂික වටිනාකම × 100.
- අගයන් ආදේශ කරන්න: 4800 ÷ 60 000 × 100.
- ගණනය කරන්න: 4800 ÷ 60 000 = 0.08; 0.08 × 100 = 8%.
Angle in a figure of two isosceles triangles

a = 40°
💡 What it's asking: The tick marks show equal lengths, so we have two isosceles triangles. Use equal base angles and the exterior angle rule to walk across the figure.
- Left triangle: two equal sides, so its two base angles are equal: both 35°.
- The exterior angle at the foot of the inner line = sum of the two opposite angles = 35 + 35 = 70°.
- Right triangle: the inner line equals the right side, so the angles opposite them are equal: both 70°.
- Angles in a triangle add to 180°: a = 180 − 70 − 70 = 40°.
✅ Right triangle: 70 + 70 + 40 = 180°. It works.

ලකුණු කළ ඉරි සමාන දිග පෙන්වයි; එබැවින් සමද්විපාද ත්රිකෝණ දෙකක් ඇත. සමාන පාද කෝණ සහ බාහිර කෝණ නීතිය යොදන්න.
- වම් ත්රිකෝණය: සමාන පාද දෙකක් නිසා පාද කෝණ දෙක සමානයි: දෙකම 35°.
- ඇතුළත රේඛාවේ පාමුල බාහිර කෝණය = අභ්යන්තර සම්මුඛ කෝණ දෙකේ එකතුව = 35 + 35 = 70°.
- දකුණු ත්රිකෝණය: ඇතුළත රේඛාව දකුණු පාදයට සමාන නිසා ඒවාට සම්මුඛ කෝණ සමානයි: දෙකම 70°.
- ත්රිකෝණයේ කෝණ එකතුව 180°: a = 180 − 70 − 70 = 40°.
