उत्तर
Given: ABCDE is a regular pentagon.
The bisector ∠A of the pentagon meets the side CD at point M.
To prove : ∠AMC = 90°
Proof: We know that the measure of each interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108°.
∠BAM = 
Since, we know that the sum of a quadrilateral is 360°
In quadrilateral ABCM, we have
∠BAM + ∠ABC + ∠BCM + ∠AMC = 360°
54° + 108° + 108° + ∠AMC = 360°
∠AMC = 360° – 270°
∠AMC = 90°
