Question

draw a regular pentagon of side 5cm draw a triangle of same area​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Tan 36 = 2/h (Where h = apothem) h = 2/Tan 36.

1. Tan 36 = 2/h (Where h = apothem) h = 2/Tan 36.2. = 2.75. Area = (½ x 4 x 2.75) x 5.

1. Tan 36 = 2/h (Where h = apothem) h = 2/Tan 36.2. = 2.75. Area = (½ x 4 x 2.75) x 5.3. = 27.53 cm2. A triangle of the same area: Assume base of triangle = 4cm.

1. Tan 36 = 2/h (Where h = apothem) h = 2/Tan 36.2. = 2.75. Area = (½ x 4 x 2.75) x 5.3. = 27.53 cm2. A triangle of the same area: Assume base of triangle = 4cm.4. Area = 1/2bh. 27.53 = ½ x 4 x h. 27.53 = 2h. h = 13.8 cm.
