Find the surface area and volume of a pentagonal prism with base perimeter-85, apothem-11.7, and height of 17
-----------------
side length of the base = 85/5 = 17
Area+=+ns%5E2%2Acot%28180%2Fn%29%2F4+=+5%2A17%5E2%2Acot%2836%29%2F4
Area = 361.25*cot(36)
-------
Volume = Area*height
Vol = 6141.25*cot(36)
Vol =~ 8452.7 cubic units.
