A square and a pentagon each have 9in sides are the perimeters the same?
no. the square has 36 inch perimeter, and the pentagon has 45 inch perimeter
How do you find the perimeter of a pentagon?
A pentagon, which is a 5-sided figure, will have a perimeter equal to the sum of the lengths of all the sides. This will be true for any polygon; the perimeter of any polygon is the sum of the lengths of all the sides. If the pentagon is a regular pentagon, then the perimeter will be 5 times the length of one of the sides. For any regular polygon, the perimeter will be the length of one side times the number of sides in that polygon.
What is the formula for finding the perimeter of a pentagon?
The perimeter is the sum of the sides of a polygon. So, to find the perimeter of a pentagon, you need only to add up the 5 side lengths. In the event the pentagon is regular (all equal sides and angles) then you can multiply the measure of the side by 5 to get the perimeter.
Pentagon with a perimeter of 45 feet?
Yes; what about it?
What is the perimeter of a pentagon if the sides each measure 6 inches?
A pentagon is a 5-sided figure, and the perimeter is the sum of all the sides. If a pentagon has sides of 6 inches, it has 5 x 6 inches = 30 inches for a perimeter.
