Expert Solution
Step 1

   Definition used -

                     Apothem for a polygon having n sides -

                                     a=s2tan180n

                      Perimeter = Sum of the length of sides

                      Area of pentagon A=12ans

                      Here s= side length of pentagon

                              n = number of sides

                              a = length of apothem

                  

Step 2

                          Geometry homework question answer, step 2, image 1

                  a)     Here side length s= 12.6

                          a=12.62tan1805=8.67

                b)  Perimeter of the base P= 5×12.6=63 in.

                c)  Area of base  B=12ans

                                           B=12×8.67×5×12.6

                                               =273.105 in2
