Question 33

The perimeter of a regular pentagon is 1540 cm. How long is its each side?

Answer 1

Given that, perimeter of regular pentagon = 1540 cm

$\because$ Perimeter of regular pentagon = 5$\times$Length of its side

[$\because$ pentagon has 5 sides of equal length ]

$\Rightarrow$ 5 $\times$ Length of side = 1540

Length of side =$\frac{1540}{5}$ = 308 cm

Hence, the length of each side is 308 cm.
