## Base Area of a Right Pentagonal Prism formula

$$\large{ A_b= \frac {1}{4}\; \sqrt { 5 \left( 5+2\; \sqrt {5} \right) a^2 } }$$
Symbol English Metric
$$\large{ A_b }$$ = base area $$\large{ in^2 }$$  $$\large{ mm^2 }$$
$$\large{ a }$$ = edge $$\large{ in }$$ $$\large{ mm }$$

## Edge of a Right Pentagonal Prism formulas

$$\large{ a = 25^{3/4} {\frac {\sqrt {A_b} } { 5\; \left( \sqrt {20}\; +5 \right) ^1/4 } } }$$

$$\large{ a = \frac { - \left ( 5\; \sqrt {5} h - \sqrt { 125\;h^2 + 10\; A_s\; \sqrt { \sqrt {500}\; +25 } } \right) } { 5\; \sqrt { \sqrt { 20 }\; +5 } } }$$

$$\large{ a = \frac {A_l} {5\;h} }$$
