Answer:

• An iamb consists of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable.

• A line of iambic pentameter contains five iambs, or ten syllables.

• Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter in his sonnets.

Explanation:

An iambic pentameter is a term used in poetry. It means a metric line of poetry that consisted of five (5) iambs. This means it is a metric line that consists of 5 sets of stressed and unstressed syllables.

One iamb in an iambic pentameter is made up of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable hence we have 10 syllables in an iambic pentameter. An iambic pentameter also has rhythm (5 feet) contained or embedded inside it.
