If two pentagons are similar, then their sides are proportional. To find PT, we'll need to set up a proportion.

AE / PT = AB / PQ

---There are many ways to set up this proportion, it just depends on what side lengths you have and ensuring that they match up on both shapes.

6 / x = 5 / 12.5

5x = 75

x = 15

Length of PT = 15 cm

Option C

Hope this helps!
