Pentagon DimentionsA regular pentagon has the following dimensions:

AB=BC=CD=DE=AE=BG=EG=1

AC=AD=BD=BE=CE=Φ

BF=EF=Φ/2 = cos 36 = sin 54 = 1+54

CG=DG= Φ-1 = 1/Φ = 512

AF=FG= cos 54 = sin 36 = 558

AG= 2cos 54 = 2sin 36= 552

CH=DH=BK=CK=1/2

Height AH=EK=12cos18=12sin72=125+25

Circumradius AJ=5+510 = BJ=CJ=DJ=EJ

Inradius JK=HJ= 5+2520 = AH5

FH= cos 18 =sin 72 = 5+58

FJ=JK/Φ

GJ=AJ/Φ

GH=AF/Φ=12525

ABGE is a equilateral rhombus, with angles {108°, 54°, 108°, 54°} and diagonals of length Φ and 552.

The small pentagon in the center has sides 1/Φ2=352 times that of the larger.
