What is the formula for finding the base area of pentagonal prism?
Binaykia
Answer: A=5t2 /4 (tan 54)
Explanation
----
The base of a pentagonal prism is a pentagon. To find that area, we start with the general area of a regular polygon. Let abe the apothem and P be the perimeter of the polygon. The area, A=1/2Pa
Now let t be the length of any side of the pentagon and substitute in for the apothem and we have:
A=1/2 x 5t x t/2(tan 54)
or A=5t2 /4 (tan 54)
