Answer:
The diagram below shows how to inscribe a square in a pentagon
Explanation:
the length of the sides are 4 cm each
ab = bc = 4
In triangle abc ;
angle abc= 108
the other angles in triangle abc is ;
108+2x = 180
x= 36
hence ;
the length of ac will be 8 cm
the length of the diagonal will be 8cm as well
let the length of ap= cp = x and pd = pe = 8-x
In triangle apc;
the length of ac is 8 cm and also the sides ap and cp are equal i.e. x we can find the values of these sides as 4 cm
using triangle laws;
side angle side
this is how we create a square in a pentagon
