Answer :

Answer: 172 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Area of a pentagon (A) = 1/2× 5s × a

Where:

s : side of the pentagon

a: apothem

Replacing with the values given and solving for A (area):

A =1/2 x (5 x10) x 6.88

A = 172 square centimeters.
