In order to find the area of a regular Pentagon, which is composed of 5 congruent isosceles triangles with bases (b) being the sides of the Pentagon (P).
So b = 6ft.
Distance from the center, where all 5 triangle apexes touch, to each vertex also makes the sides of the triangles. This = 6ft. We'll call it side (s). Now to find the area of each triangle, we need the apothem, which is the height of the Isosceles triangle. The height (h) or apothem bisects the polygon side/triangle base (b) into 2 equal lengths. So b/2 = 6/2 = 3ft.
Now we have 2 right triangles making up each of the 5 triangles, split by the apothem h.
We can find h by Pythagorean Theorem: h^2 = (b/2)^2 + s^2
So h^2 = 3^2 + 6^2 = 9 + 36 = 45
So square root (sr) of h^2 = h, which = square root of 45
--> h = sr (9) × sr (5) = 3sr5
Now the area of a triangle (At) = 1/2 b×h --> At = 3×3sr5 = 9sr5
Now that's one triangle, multiply it by 5 to get the area of all 5 triangles, which as we've said make up the Area of the regular Pentagon (P).
So P = 5 × 9sr5 = 45sr5, or approximately 100.62 ft. squared

Please help me with my homework I don't understand it ​
Damm [24]

Answer:

Part A:

0.1111111111111 = 1/9

Part B:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

When I put 0.111111111 into my calculator I get a conversion of 1/9.

Part B:

The fraction 1/9 means that for every 9 kids he surveyed, 1 of them replied "yes."

So covert 1/9 into x/27

27/9 = 3 which means 9 goes into 27, 3 times.

Multiply 1 by 3.

1 x 3 = 3

Put into fraction form

3/27

This means 3 students out of 27 answered "yes."

Julian has partially filled the prism below with 16 unit cubes.
Gre4nikov [31]

He needs 20 more unit cubes to completely fill the prism

<h3>How to determine the number of unit cubes?</h3>

The dimension of the prism is given as;

4 by 3 by 3

The volume is calculated as:

Volume = 4 * 3 * 3

Volume = 36

He has already filled 16 units.

So, the units remaining is

Remaining = 36 - 16

Evaluate

Remaining = 20

Hence, he needs 20 more unit cubes to completely fill the prism
