We are asked to solve for the area of the regular pentagon since it is a pentagon we already know that it has 5 regular sides and the formula in solving its area is shown below:
Area regular pentagon = 1/2*apothem*perimeter
where perimeter = 14 * 5 since it has 5 sides
perimeter = 70
Area = 1/2 * 22*70
Area = 770 unit squared

The answer is 770 unit squared.
