The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to verify the two statements regarding the perimeter of a regular pentagon and a regular polygon inscribed in a circle. ### Step-by-Step Solution **Step 1: Analyze Statement I** The first statement claims that the perimeter \( P \) of a regular pentagon inscribed in a circle with center \( O \) and radius \( a \) is given by: \[ P = 10a \sin(36^\circ) \] To find the perimeter of a regular pentagon, we can use the formula for the side length \( s \) of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle: \[ s = 2a \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) \] For a pentagon, \( n = 5 \): \[ s = 2a \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{5}\right) = 2a \sin(36^\circ) \] The perimeter \( P \) of the pentagon is: \[ P = 5s = 5 \times 2a \sin(36^\circ) = 10a \sin(36^\circ) \] Thus, Statement I is **true**. --- **Step 2: Analyze Statement II** The second statement claims that the perimeter \( P \) of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle with center \( O \) and radius \( a \) is given by: \[ P = (3n - 5) \sin\left(\frac{360^\circ}{2n}\right) \] Using the same formula for the side length \( s \): \[ s = 2a \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) \] The perimeter \( P \) for \( n \) sides is: \[ P = n \cdot s = n \cdot 2a \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) \] This can be rewritten as: \[ P = 2na \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) \] Now, we need to check if this matches the given expression \( (3n - 5) \sin\left(\frac{360^\circ}{2n}\right) \). Substituting \( \frac{360^\circ}{2n} = \frac{180^\circ}{n} \): \[ P = (3n - 5) \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) \] This implies: \[ 2na \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) = (3n - 5) \sin\left(\frac{180^\circ}{n}\right) \] For this to hold true, we need: \[ 2a = 3 - \frac{5}{n} \] This is not generally true for all \( n \geq 3 \). Therefore, Statement II is **false**. --- ### Conclusion - **Statement I** is **true**. - **Statement II** is **false**. ### Final Answer The correct option is **C** (Statement I is true, Statement II is false). ---
