The perimeter of the pentagon with apothem of 5cm is 28.87cm
<h3>How to calculate the perimeter of a pentagon</h3>The sum of all the external sides of the pentagon is its perimeter.
First we need to calculate the half of one of its sides using the SOH CAH TOA
tan 30 = x/5
x = 5 tan 30
x = 2.89
One of the sides = 2(2.89) = 5.77 cm
Perimeter of th pentagon = 5(5.77) = 28.87
Hence the perimeter of the pentagon with apothem of 5cm is 28.87cm

Step-by-step explanation:
We know that...
x+y (from the first pair) corresponds to 8(in the second pair)..
0 (from the first pair) corresponds to x-y (in the second pair)..
Hence,
By simply adding the two equations we get,
Hence,
By substituting x=4, we get that y=4
Hence,
x=y=4
