Answer:

960.42\text{ ft}^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.  

We have been given that a community pool that is shaped like a regular pentagon needs a new cover for the winter months.

To find the area of community pool we will use area of pentagon formula.

\text{Area of pentagon}=\frac{1}{2}a*p, where, a represents the apothem or perpendicular distance from the center of the pentagon and p represents perimeter of pentagon.

Let us find the perimeter of our given pentagon by multiplying each side length by 5.

\text{Perimeter of community pool}=5\times 23.62

\text{Perimeter of community pool}=118.1

Now let us find apothem of our pentagon by using Pythagoras theorem.  

a^2=20.10^2-11.81^2

a^2=404.01-139.4761

a^2=264.5339

a=\sqrt{264.5339}

a=16.2645

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

\text{Area of community pool}=\frac{1}{2}\times 16.2645\times 118.1

\text{Area of community pool}=8.13224907\times 118.1

\text{Area of community pool}=960.418615627971\approx 960.42

Therefore, the area of the pool that needs to be covered is 960.42 square feet.

a pair of sneakers is on sale for $51 this is 75% of the original price, what is the original price of the shoes?
sertanlavr [38]
Ok so first u have to devide the 51 into 4. So 51 divided by 4 is 12.75. Then it is 75% of it so 75% is 3/4 so you will have to multiply 12.75 by 3. That would equal 38.25. YOUR ANSWER IS 38.25
