So a pentagon is constructed by five identical triangles, that's why you can find the area of one triangle and multiply it with 5:
A_pentagon=A_triangle*5
To find the area of a triangle you must use tangens.
You can watch this for more on that on youtube. 

For the length of an arc or a portion of a circle you can find it using: 
arc lenght = 2π*r(A/360), where A=angle. 
So if you know radians, then 2π is a whole circle. And to calculate for the specific circle you have to use the radius. That's why you multiply with radius, which is the only difference between any two different circles. you then multiply with the  part of the circle that you want to find the lenght for, which is A/360 (because there are 360° in a circle)

I hope that helped.

Suppose that three astronauts outside a spaceship decide to play catch. all three astronauts have the same mass and are equally
Sloan [31]
<span>Since they are playing in the space, gravity or the lack of it plays a huge role here. When the first astronaut throws the second astronaut toward the third one and due to the force exerted they would be moving in the opposite direction and there won't be any catch. Hence the game does not continue after the first throw.</span>

Write a word problem that involves combining three equal groups
ipn [44]
Combining three equal groups means that we will mainly depend on multiplying the quantity by 3 to get the total

<u><em>Examples are shown below:</em></u>
1- Mrs Nadia teaches three classes. Each class has 25 student. How many students does Mrs Nadia teach in total?
<u>In this problem</u> we will be combining three equal groups of students where each group has 25 students, therefore:
Total number of students = 3 * 25 = 75 students

2- John has three bags of candies. Each bag contains 10 pieces of candies. How many candies does John has?
<u>In this problem</u> we will be combining three equal groups of candies where each group has 10 pieces, therefore:
Total number of candies = 3 * 10 = 30 candies

Hope this helps :)
