The area of the pentagon, rounded to the nearest tenth will be 32.7 square cm. Then the correct option is C.
<h3>What is a polygon?</h3>
The polygon is a 2D geometry that has a finite number of sides. And all the sides of the polygon are straight lines connected to each other side by side.
A regular pentagon has an apothem measuring 3 cm and a perimeter of 21.8 cm.
Then the side length of the pentagon will be
5 x Side length = 21.8 cm
Side length = 4.36 cm
Then the area of the pentagon, rounded to the nearest tenth will be
Area of pentagon = 5 x area of triangle
Area of pentagon = 5 x 1/2 x 4.36 x 3
Area of pentagon = 32.7 square cm
Thus, the correct option is C.

<h3>Answer:</h3>
a) l = 5 + 2w
b) P = 2(l +w) = 2(5 +2w +w)
c) w = 8 cm, l = 21 cm
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
a) Using w for width, twice the width is 2w, and 5 more than that is 5+2w. This is your expression for l:
... l = 5 + 2w
b) The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides, so is the sum of twice the length and twice the width.
... P = 2(l +w) = 2(5 +2w + w) . . . . substituting for l using the expression of (a)
c) Substituting the given perimeter, we have ...
... 58 = 2(5 +3w) = 10 + 6w . . . . . collect terms, eliminate parentheses
... 48 = 6w . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10
... 8 = w . . . . . . . . divide by 6
... l = 5 + 2·8 = 21 . . . . . find length using the formula for it
Dimensions are in centimeters, so we can write the solution as ...
- width = 8 cm
- length = 21 cm
4 + 3 = 7, 7 + 7 = 14, 7 + 0 = 7, 7 + 7 = 14. 14 = 14 Fourteen is equal to fourteen so the answer is =
