You are creating a graphic design logo that is made up of pentagons. In the middle you have a large, regular pentagon with all sides that are 8 inches long. You surround the middle design with similar regular polygons some with all sides 4 inches long and some with all sides 5 inches long. What must the measure of the angles be for each of the polygons in order for all the pentagons to be similar?

Jenny wanted to repaint the walls of a rectangular room in her home. The room is 40 feet long and 26 feet wide with a ceiling 10 feet high. The room has 4 windows (each 4 ft x 6 ft) and 7 doors (each 6 ft x 3 ft). She will not be painting either the ceiling or the doors. A a. What is the square footage Jenny needs to paint? Show your work. Since she plans to paint with a color that is similar to the current color, Jenny thinks she will need only one coat of paint. She looks up information online and finds that one gallon of paint will cover 400 square feet. She has decided she should buy 2 gallons of paint. b. Do you agree or disagree with Jenny’s plan to buy 2 gallons of paint? Show calculations and write a sentence or two to support your argument.
2)Kira is participating in a cycle-a-thon to raise money for cancer research. The course that has been set up for participants to travel is in the shape of a triangle. Two of the angles of the course are 113 and 47, and the length of the side between these two angles is 4.1 km. For each kilometre that Kira cycles, she will raise $14.70 for cancer research. Determine how much money Kira raises if she cycles the course 3 times.
