The Perimeter or a regular pentagon is 41.5cm. Write and solve an equation to determine the length of each side of the pentagon

8.3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

So a pentagon has 5 equal sides, and the perimeter is the distance around a figure. Because we know the perimeter is 41.5 centimeters, we just divide that number by 5.

Perimeter (P) = s+s+s+s+s (sides)

P: 41.5 cm ÷ 5 =

8.3 cm

We know this is correct because:

8.3 + 8.3 + 8.3 + 8.3 + 8.3 = 41.5
