Answer:
C) 549 km²
Explanation:
The area of the regular pentagon is given by ...
A = (1/2)Pa
where P represents the perimeter, and 'a' represents the apothem (6.2 km). Of course, the perimeter is 5 times the side length.
The lateral area is the product of the perimeter and the height:
LA = Ph
Using these formulas, and recognizing the total area includes two (2) pentagons, we have ...
total area = (LA) +2(A) = Ph +2(1/2)Pa = P(h +a)
= (45 km)(6 km +6.2 km) = 549 km^2
