What is the approximate area of the regular pentagon?
2 answers:
Area of the pentagon: 342 cm2
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure of the pentagon is missing: find it in attachment.
The area of the pentagon can be seen as the area of 5 equal triangles, each of them having a base equal to the length of the side of the pentagon,
L = 14.1 cm
and the height of each triangle can be found by using Pythagorean's theorem:
The area of each of the 5 triangles is
Therefore, the area of the pentagon is 5 times this area:

Answer:
This translates to "y is any real number such that it is 0 or larger".
The reasoning is that the result of any absolute value function is either 0 or positive. In other words, we'll never get a negative result of an absolute value function. This is due to how absolute value represents distance. Negative distance does not make sense.
So if y = |x-3| then y = 0 is the smallest output possible. We could have any positive output we want.
In terms of a graph (see below), the V shape is at the lowest point (3,0). The y coordinate is all we care about in terms of finding the range. So we see the lowest y value is y = 0.
