Hello to all


How do I put a regular pentagon in an excel graph knowing the length of the side and the width of the angle (108 °) formed on two sides.

Thanks in advance. Hello,
Mario

PS. I excuse for my english
 
@Anthony: Nice work.

... to place the Chart in the fourth upper right at the Cartesian plane and not with the intersection of the axes at the center of the polygon.

@Anthony: Nice work.

[. . .]
Thank you for your compliment. Your suggestion also showed me which was Marius' request.

The following code will return all the coordinates in the positive X /Positive Y domain; also the form now lies with his base on the X axis.
Code:
Function MultiGon(ByVal LLen As Single, ByVal NLati As Long) As Variant
'see https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/1022782-pentagon-graph.html
Dim rArr(), Alpha As Double, Lato As Double, Ragg As Double, I As Long
Dim minX As Double, minY As Double, CorrAlpha
'
ReDim rArr(1 To NLati + 1, 1 To 2)
Alpha = 2 * Application.WorksheetFunction.Pi / NLati
Ragg = LLen / 2 / Sin(Alpha / 2)
minX = 999: minY = 999
If NLati Mod 2 = 0 Then CorrAlpha = Alpha / 2
For I = 1 To NLati + 1
    rArr(I, 1) = Ragg * Sin(Alpha * I + CorrAlpha)
    If rArr(I, 1) < minY Then minY = rArr(I, 1)
    rArr(I, 2) = Ragg * Cos(Alpha * I + CorrAlpha)
    If rArr(I, 2) < minX Then minX = rArr(I, 2)
Next I
For I = 1 To NLati + 1
    rArr(I, 1) = rArr(I, 1) - minY
    rArr(I, 2) = rArr(I, 2) - minX
Next I
MultiGon = rArr
End Function
Bye
