Pentagon Area

Calculation

Once you enter the input values in the calculator, the output parameters are calculated.

Examples

The following examples cover how to calcualte the Area when length of side is given.

1. What is the Area of Pentagon whose length of side is 20 units?

Answer

Given:

  • length of side, s = 20 units

The formula to find the Area of a Pentagon is:

A = \( \frac{ \sqrt{5(5 + 2\sqrt{5})} }{4} s ^2 \)

Substitute given values in the above formula.

A = \( \frac{ \sqrt{5(5 + 2\sqrt{5})} }{4} \times20^2 \)

A = 688.19 square units

∴ Area, A = 688.19 square units

2. What is the Area of Pentagon whose length of side is 1 units?

Answer

Given:

  • length of side, s = 1 units

The formula to find the Area of a Pentagon is:

A = \( \frac{ \sqrt{5(5 + 2\sqrt{5})} }{4} s ^2 \)

Substitute given values in the above formula.

A = \( \frac{ \sqrt{5(5 + 2\sqrt{5})} }{4} \times1^2 \)

A = 1.72 square units

∴ Area, A = 1.72 square units
