The area of the regular pentagon is equal of 5 times the area of the triangle.


The formula of an area of a triangle:



A_\triangle=(bh)/(2)


We have:



b=11.8\ in\\h=8.1\ in


Substitute



A_\triangle=(11.8\cdot8.1)/(2)=47.79\ in^2


The area of the regular pentagon:



A=5\cdot47.79=238.95\ in^2
