Can someone check my answer? (Find the area.)
You can already cross out A and D, since you already know B is incorrect. C (your choice) must be correct.
A is too little. D is too huge.
The radius is the length of KF. With Pythagoras you find the length of KM, where M is the middle of the segment GF. Then the area of the shown triangle is KM*8/2. Multiply this area by 20 (there are 20 little triangles in the decagon) and you obtain answer C.
I too would say C. Why? Because to find the area of a circle, you do r^2 (pi) . The radius of this decagon is 25.89. So 25.89^2 would give you 670.29. Next you would pi that to get about 2104. I know that it is a decagon, but you can think of it as a circle. Since it has 10 sides, the area of it should be a little bit smaller than the area of a circle. Does it make sense? I hope this help!
So everyone decide C is correct?
