Answer:
Area of the regular pentagon is 532.40 SQUARE INCHES.
Finding the Area of a regular pentagon, use this formula:
A = 1/4 √5(5+2√5) a²
where: a = side length.
A = 1/4 √5(5+2√5) (17.6in)²
A = 1/4 √5(5+2(2.24) 309.76 in²
A = 1/4 √5(5+4.48) * 309.76 in²
A = 1/4 √5(9.48) * 309.76 in²
A = 1/4 √47.4 * 309.76 in²
A = 1/4 * 6.88 * 309.76 in²
A = (1*6.88*309.76in²)/4
A = 2131.15 / 4
A = 532.79 in²
