Pentagon - information

Regular pentagon - a convex figure, a pentagon with all sides of equal length and all angles. Regular pentagons are the walls of polyhedrons such as regular dodecahedron and truncated icosahedron.



A regular pentagon with side length a has the following properties:
  1. every inside angle has a measure $$ {\displaystyle {\frac {3}{5}}\pi =108^{\circ }} $$
  2. the center angle of the circumscribed circle based on the side of the pentagon has a measure $${\displaystyle {\frac {2}{5}}\pi =72^{\circ }} $$
  3. the area of this figure is expressed by the formula $$ {\displaystyle P={\frac {5a^{2}}{4}}\operatorname {ctg} {\frac {\pi }{5}}={\frac {a^{2}}{4}}{\sqrt {25+10{\sqrt {5}}}}\approx 1{,}72048\cdot a^{2}} $$
  4. the radius of the circle circumscribed on a regular pentagon has length $$ {\displaystyle R=a{\frac {\sqrt {50+10{\sqrt {5}}}}{10}}=a{\frac {1}{\sqrt {3-\varphi }}}} $$
  5. the radius of the circle inscribed in a regular pentagon has the length $$ {\displaystyle r={\frac {a{\sqrt {25+10{\sqrt {5}}}}}{10}}={\frac {R}{\varphi }}} $$
  6. the diagonal has the length $$ {\displaystyle d={\frac {{\sqrt {5}}+1}{2}}a=\varphi a} $$ where $$ \varphi $$ is a golden number
