If a pentagon is regular, then all of the sides are the same length. This means that
So, if , the lengths of the sides evaluate to
So, all the sides of the pentagon are 21 units long, and AB is 21 units long as well, because all sides are the same length.
Answer:
Fencing needed = 20.8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
Given: Triangle ABC with vertices A(0, 6), B(6, 5) and C(5, -1).
We have to find the length of fence required to cover the triangular garden.
Amount of fencing required = Perimeter of the triangular garden
Perimeter of the garden = AB + BC + AC
Formula to get the distance between A and B,
d =
AB = =
BC = =
AC = =
Perimeter =
= 6.08 + 6.08 + 8.60
= 20.76
≈ 20.8 units
Therefore, amount of fencing required to cover the triangular park is 20.8 units.
