if the area of each triangle is 14.5 square inches then what is the area of the regular decagon

Respuesta :

the answer is either 14.5 * 8 or 14.5 * 10 , because a decagon can have 8 triangles of unequal size or 10 triangles of equal size.

Area of the regular decagon with 8 triangles of unequal size is 116 (or)  Area of the regular decagon with 10 triangles of equal size is 145.

What is a decagon?

"A decagon is a polygon with 10 equal sides. Decagon have 8 triangles of unequal size or 10 triangles of equal size. It also has ten vertices - which is where the sides meet - and ten angles."

What is a triangle?

"Triangles are the type of polygons, which have three sides and three vertices. This is a two-dimensional figure with three straight sides."

Given

Area of triangle = 14.5 square inches

We know that

Decagon  have 8 triangles of unequal size or 10 triangles of equal size.

Area of the regular decagon with 8 triangles of unequal size

= 14.5 × 8

= 116

(or)

Area of the regular decagon with 10 triangles of equal size

= 14.5 × 10

= 145

Hence, Area of the regular decagon with 8 triangles of unequal size is 116 (or)  Area of the regular decagon with 10 triangles of equal size is 145.
