Let the side length of the regular pentagon be a.


b² = a²+(0.5a)²-2*a*(0.5a)cos108

b = 1.24860602048a units. 


Calculating angle AGE.

Let it be c.


(1.24860602048a/sin108) = (a/sinc)

c = 49.6138224408°


d = 180-2*49.6138224408 

d = 80.7723551184°

d is the angle of the circular arc EFG with radius 5 units.


e² = 50-50cos80.7723551184

e = 6.47936163294 units.


Calculating a, side length of the regular pentagon.


e = b

6.47936163294 = 1.24860602048a


a = 6.47936163294/1.24860602048

a = 5.1892763026 units.

a is AB.


AG = ½(a)

AG = 2.5946381513 units.


Calculating Blue Area.


It is;


Area triangle with height 5.1892763026 units and base 2.5946381513sin108 units + Area sector with radius 5 units and angle 80.7723551184° - Area triangle with height 5 units and base 5sin80.7723551184 units.


= 0.5*5.1892763026*2.5946381513sin108+(80.7723551184π*5*5)/360-(0.5*5*5sin80.7723551184)


= 6.40265240252+17.62179426758-12.33823760533 


= 11.68620906477 square units.


Calculating Area Green.


f = 5+2.5946381513

f = 7.5946381513 units.


cosg = 5/7.5946381513

g = 48.82514318201°


7.5946381513²-5² = h²

h = 5.71651367961 units.


Area Green is;


Area triangle with height 5.71651367961 units and base 5 units - Area sector with radius 5 units and angle 48.82514318201°


= 0.5*5*5.71651367961-(48.82514318201*π*5*5/360)


= 14.29128419902-10.65199382855 

= 3.63929037047 square units.


Therefore;


Area Green ÷ Are Blue is;


3.63929037047÷11.68620906477

= 0.31141753072 

≈ 0.31 to 2 decimal places.
