Question
The lengths (in inches) of two sides of a regular pentagon are represented by the expressions 4x + 7 and x + 16. Find the length of a side of the pentagon.
Hint:
A regular pentagon is a polygon that has 5 sides all of same length and all the angles of the same measure.
The correct answer is: 19
Explanation:
- We have been given the two sides of a regular pentagon in the form of expressions that is -
- 4x + 7 and x + 16
- We have to find the length of a side of the pentagon.
Step 1 of 1:
The length of the two sides of a regular pentagon is represented by x + 16; 4x + 7
Now, We know that all sides of regular polygon are equal.
So,
X + 16 = 4x + 7
3x = 16 - 7
3x = 9
x = 3
And the measure of length will be
= x + 16
= 3 + 16
= 19
3x = 16 - 7
3x = 9
x = 3
And the measure of length will be
= 3 + 16
= 19
