Calculating the area of the inscribed regular pentagon.

Let the single side length of the inscribed regular pentagon be x.


12²=2y²-2y²cos108

y = √(144/(2-2cos108))

y = 7.416407865 cm.


Therefore;


x = √(2(7.416407865)²-2(7.416407865)²cos36)

x = 4.58359213501 cm.


Therefore area inscribed regular pentagon is;


(5*4.58359213501²)/(4tan(36))

= 36.1460548598 cm².
