Brennan is making a poster for the drama club's new production. it is a regular pentagon with side lengths of 12 inches. the school wants to put up a giant replica of the poster during athletic events. if the length of each side is 8 times the original, how many times larger is the area of the replica than the area of the original?
There are 5 sides to a pentagon, 12 inches each side, so a total of 60 inches. If you then make it 8 times bigger, 60 × 8 = 480 inches , 96 inches each side
