Perimetre of pentagon=5*t
where t=side lenght
t=perimeter/5=(35/5)=7
t=7

To find the length of each side of the play area, we need to divide the perimeter of the pentagon by the number of sides, which is 5.
Perimeter = 35 feet
Number of sides = 5
Length of each side = Perimeter / Number of sides
= 35 feet / 5
= 7 feet
Therefore, the length of each side of the play area is 7 feet.
