Because , for a regular pentagon, the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon = (5-2)*180 = 540 degrees.
Pentagon ,,,, 180 digr
A single internal angle in any regular polygon is equal to ((n - 2) x 180) / n, where n is the number of sides in the polygon.In the case of a pentagon, a single internal angle is equal to ((5 - 2) x 180) / 5 = (3 x 180) / 5 = 540 / 5 = 108 degrees.
A pentagon is a five-sided polygon. The sum of the angles of the pentagon is: 180(n - 2) = 180(5 -2) = 180(3) = 540 degrees.
Equilateral just means equal sided. An equilateral pentagon is therefore a pentagon with all its sides of equal length. If an equilateral pentagon is also an equal-angled pentagon then it is called a regular pentagon.

Sure, honey. Technically speaking, you can't divide a pentagon into 3 equal parts with straight lines. A pentagon has 5 sides, so you can divide it into 1, 2, or 5 equal parts, but not 3. Math can be a real buzzkill sometimes, can't it?

A Regular Pentagon
pentagon has five equal sides
If it is referred to as a REGULAR pentagon, then it has equal length sides. An Asymmetric pentagon has NON-equal length sides.
The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is 180*(5-2) = 180*3 = 540 degrees. The size of the pentagon is totally irrelevant.
a pentagon has 5 sides, a regular pentagon has 5 EQUAL sides A Regular Pentagon is a shape that has equal angles and side lengths. It is type of Pentagon. Pentagons do not have to have equal sides and lengths.
Only if it is a regular pentagon. The pentagon is in the shape of an equal legged pentagon, but, due to human error, the pentagon's interior angles may not all be exactly equal.
