What is the area of a regular pentagon if the radius r of the circumcircle is 3.4 cm and half the side length a is 2 cm rounded to 1 decimal place?

In a regular pentagon there are 5 vertices which connect to the circumcentre each a distance r = 3.4 cm away. This creates 5 triangles inside the pentagon; so the area of the pentagon is the sum of these five triangles; as the pentagon is regular, this is the same as 5 times the area of one of these triangles. The length of each side of the pentagon is twice half the length of one side → side = 2 × a = 2 × 2 cm Consider one side and the two radii connecting its ends to the circumcentre; this is an isosceles triangle, so dropping a perpendicular from the circumcentre to the side of the pentagon bisects the base of the triangle (side of the pentagon). From this the height of the triangle can be calculated using Pythagoras: half_side² + height² = radius² → (a cm)² + height² = (r cm)² →(2 cm)² + height² = (3.4 cm)² → height² = (3.4 cm)² - (2 cm)² → height = √(3.4² - 2²) cm area_pentagon = 5 × area_triangle = 5 × ½ × base × height = 5 × ½ × (2 × 2 cm) × √(3.4² - 2²) cm = 10 × √7.56 cm² = 27.495... cm² ≈ 27.5 cm² to 1 dp


What is the surface area of a regular pentagon that has a perimeter of 37.5 cm?

The 5 sided regular pentagon will consist of 5 congruent isosceles angles with equal sides of 6.379881063 cm by using the sine rule and 2 equal base angles of 54 degrees with an apex angle of 72 degrees opposite side 7.5 cm Area of the pentagon: 0.5*6.379881063^2 *sin(72)*5 = 96.77685379 square cm

When the side length of a regular pentagon is increased its perimeter increases by 12.5 cm how much longer is the new side length?

2.5 cm. If the area of a pentagon is increased by 12.5 cm and each side of the pentagon is the same length, then each side would increase by 2.5 cm. (12.5 cm/ 5 sides = 2.5 cm/ side.
