Question

Here is a five-sided polygon. Describe or show the strategy you would use to find its area. Mark up and label the diagram to show your reasoning so that it can be followed by others. (It is not necessary to actually calculate the area.)

Answer 1

Answer:

i can explai it to u if u wan to get the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the polygon into 5 triangles by using each side as a base and joining the vertices of the polygon to a common point (for example, the centre). If the polygon is regular the angle at the vertex of each triangle is 360/5=72 degrees, so you have 5 isosceles triangles of equal area. Find the area of one and multiply by 5 to get the total area.multiply 5 times the lenght of oneside
