A house number is displayed on a plaque in the shape of a regular 7-sided polygon. The area of the plaque is 70 squared inches. The perpendicular distance from a side to the center is 5 inches to the nearest inch. What is the perimeter of the plaque?

The perimeter of the plaque is 28 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A house number is displayed on a plaque in the shape of a regular 7-sided polygon. The area of the plaque is 70 squared inches. The perpendicular distance from a side to the center is 5 inches to the nearest inch.

To find : What is the perimeter of the plaque?

Solution :

The 7-sided polygon can be divided into seven triangles whose height, h is equal to the perpendicular distance from each side to the center.

The base of each triangle is equal to the length of a side, s.

The area of each triangle is

The area of the whole polygon is

Now, the perimeter of a regular 7-sided polygon is .

Substitute in area,

We have given,

The perimeter of the plaque is 28 inches.

well there are two answers for that.

1: you need 120 ones then that will equal up to 120.

2: you could also do one 100 and 2 tens.

those are the answers that i have thought of.
