If you want it divided into five equal parts, draw a dot in the center of the pentagon, and draw a line form each vertex to the dot. You should now have five equal triangles.
Sure, honey. Technically speaking, you can't divide a pentagon into 3 equal parts with straight lines. A pentagon has 5 sides, so you can divide it into 1, 2, or 5 equal parts, but not 3. Math can be a real buzzkill sometimes, can't it?
One possible way to divide a pentagon into five parts is (assuming this is a convex pentagon) to start by placing a dot directly in the center. Then, draw a 5 lines from that center dot connecting to the 5 points around the edge of the pentagon. You should now have 5 triangles instead of 1 pentagon.
Sure, you can divide a pentagon into 4 parts by drawing two diagonals from one vertex to the opposite vertex, creating four triangles inside the pentagon. So technically, yes, you can divide a pentagon into 4 parts. But good luck trying to fit them back together perfectly!
When you divide something into two equal parts you are halving it. This process is often used to teach fractions in school.
The number of equal parts in a whole depends on how the whole is divided. If the whole is divided into halves, there are 2 equal parts. If divided into thirds, there are 3 equal parts, and so on. In general, the number of equal parts in a whole is determined by the denominator of the fraction used to represent the parts.

bisect is to divive into equal parts.
Draw the pentagon on the outside of the circle with all five sides touching the circle. Now by dividing the pentagon into 5 equal segments to the center, the circle is divided as well into 5 equal segments. Mathmatically speaking, see the related link for more information
