Find The Volume Of The Attached Figure Help Please Ill Give Brainliest If You Explain Your Answer class=

Sagot :

First find the area of the pentagon. The equation for this is Area = pa/2, with p being the perimeter and a being the apothem (2.75in). The perimeter is 4*5, since there are five sides and one of them is four inches. This means the perimeter is 20 inches. Back to the equation, 20*2.75 = 55. 55/2 = 27.5in^2.

Next, multiply by the height. This shape’s height is 3 inches. 27.5*3 = 82.5.

The volume is 82.5 in^3

Answer:

  • 82.5 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given pentagonal prism.

The base is a regular pentagon with side of 4 in and the distance from the center to side 2.75 in.

By connecting the center to each vertex we get 5 equal triangles with side of 4 in and height of 2.75 in.

Find the base area:

  • B = 5*1/2*4*2.75 = 27.5

Find the volume:

  • V = Bh
  • V = 27.5*3 = 82.5

The volume is 82.5 cubic inches
