Answer:

radius = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle centred at the origin is

x² + y² = r² ( where r is the radius )

x² + y² = 42.25 ← is in this form

with r² = 42.25 ( take the square root of both sides )

r = $\sqrt{42.25}$ = 6.5

A pentagonal prism has a height of 9 feet, and each base edge is 3 feet. Find the volume. Round your answer to the nearest hundr

OLga [1]

Height of the pentagon = 9 ft

Edge of base = 3 ft

$area of pentagon = \frac{s^{2}n}{4 tan\left ( \frac{180}{n} \right )}$

s is the length of any side = 3

n is the number of sides = 5

tan is the tangent function calculated in degrees

$\\ \\\\area of pentagon = \frac{3^{2}(5)}{4 tan\left ( \frac{180}{5} \right )}\\\\\\area of pentagon = \frac{9(5)}{4 tan\left ( 36 \right )}\\\\area of pentagon = \frac{45}{4 ( 0.7265 )}\\\\area of pentagon = \frac{45}{2.906}\\\\area of pentagon = 15.4852$
