Question

Find the area of a regular pentagon with all sides six feet

Answer 1

Pent- mean 5. The shape has 5 sides

If you want to find the area, you have to know that dimension.
Are you sure you're not looking for perimeter?

Answer 2

A pentagon can be divided into 110 different triangles. Then you can find the area with the height and base being 3. Does that make sense?

Answer 3

Sorry just 10 triangles XD

Answer 4

\(\bf \textit{Area of a regular polygon}=\cfrac{1}{4}ns^2\cdot cot\left(\cfrac{180}{n}\right)\\ \quad \\
n=\textit{number of sides in the polygon}\\
s=\textit{length of each side}\)
