We have here similar pentagons. If we have that the ratio of the first pentagon is 10/12, and the other pentagon is similar, then, the proportion, in this case, is:


(10)/(12)=(8)/(x)

That is, to find the side, x, we need to use this proportion.

Therefore, the answer, in this case, is 8/x (second option).
