Find the area of a regular decagon with perimeter 100 units. Show all work.

1 answer:

4 0

A regular polygon has ten (10) equal sides ( since it is regular).
We are given with the perimeter value which is 100 units and the perimeter formula is P = 10a
Solving for a (the side measurement), we have:
100 = 10a
a= 100/10
a =10

We can now proceed in solving the area and the formula is shown below:
Area = 5/2 a√ (5+2√5)
Area = 5/2 * 10√(5+2√5)
Area = 76.94 square units

The answer is 96.94 square units.

PLEASE HELP ME!!<br><br> Find the measure of angle A:<br><br> Find the measure of angle B:

g100num [7]

Answer:

Measure of angle A is 65 degrees and measure of angle B is 37 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation: First add all of the degrees of excluding x (4+(-9)) which is -5. Then subtract that from 180 since that is the sum of all the angles in a triangle which gives you 185. Then divide it by the number of "x's" that there are which is 5 which gives you 37. So angle B is x which is 37 degrees and angle a is 2(37)-9 which is 65 degrees. Hope this helps.
