    Calculate the total boundary length of a pentagon-shaped isolation ward where each side measures the same length in meters, to ensure proper spacing of patient beds and medical equipment for infection control compliance. This calculation will help healthcare facilities maintain standardized isolation zones while adhering to hospital safety protocols.
