Subject: pyramids a regular pentagonal pyramid has a base perimeter of 1,085 ft. How long is one side of the base? |
Hello.
A regular pentagonal pyramid has a base that is a regular pentagon - so all sides are the same length. If the perimeter is 1085, then that equals 5 times the length of one side of the base.
