How many triangles in a regular pentagon?
108
What does 1 regular hexagon and 6 congruent triangles look like?
pyramid
What is the ratio of the height to the sides of a pentagon?
If the pentagon is a regular pentagon, then each of the central angles (formed by joinning the center with the vertices) is72⁰ (1/5 of 360⁰). So that 5 congruent isosceles triangle are formed, with base angles of 54⁰. If we draw the height, of these triangles (from the center to the sides of the pentagon), 10 congruent right triangles are formed. Let denote with: b the sides of the pentagon, and h the height. In one of the right triangles we have: tan 54⁰ = h/(b/2) tan 54⁰ = 2h/b 1.38 = 2h/b 2h = 1.38b h = (1.38/2)b h = .69b So that, h/b = .69b/b = .69
True or False Can The area of a regular pentagon be found by breaking the pentagon into five congruent triangles and then taking the sum of their areas?
True.
How many congruent sides does a pentagon have?
If it is a regular pentagon then it will have 5 congruent sides.
How many congruent sides in a pentagon?
A regular pentagon has 5 congruent sides
Can The area of a regular hexagon be found by breaking the hexagon into six congruent triangles and then taking the sum of their areas?
yes.
The area of a regular hexagon can be found by breaking the hexagon into six congruent triangles and then taking the sum of their areas?
true
Can a regular hexagon be found by breaking the hexagon into six congruent triangles and then taking the sum of their areas?
If you mean the area of the regular hexagon, then the answer is yes.
Do all regular pentagons have congruent diagonals?
No. A small pentagon will have smaller diagonals than a large pentagon! However, all the diagonals of a regular pentagon will be congruent.
Does a pentagon have congruent sides?
Not necessarily; if it is a regular pentagon, then yes.
Is an equilateral pentagon regular?
No, but a regular pentagon is equilateral. Equilateral means that all sides are congruent (equal in measure); to be regular, all angles also have to be congruent.
The area of a regular heptagon can be found by breaking the heptagon into seven congruent triangles and then taking the sum of their areas?
yes True

a regular pentagon or just a pentagon
Does a regular pentagon have congruent angles?
