1. a regular pentagon has side length 12 cm. the perimeter of the pentagon is 60 cm and the area is 247.7 cm2. a second pentagon has side lengths equal to 18 cm. find the perimeter of the second pentagon. 2. the ratio of the areas of two similar polygons is 49: 36. if the perimeter of the first polygon is 15 cm, what is the perimeter of the second polygon? round to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since both regular pentagons are similar we have sides are proportional

Perimeter of first pentagon =60 cm

One side = 60/5 =12 cm

Ratio of I pentagon side: II=12:18 =2:3

Perimeter ratio = 2:3

2:3 = 60:x

Hence x = 90 cm.

Perimeter of second = 90 cm

2) When areas have ratio 49:36

sides will have ratio as square roots =7:6

Perimeter also ratio 7:6

Hence 7:6= 15:x

x =Perimeter of II pentagon =90/7 = 12.86 cm.

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
