Abstract
In this article, the notion of pentagonal fuzzy number (PFN) is introduced in a generalized way. A few articles have been published based on this topic, but they have some ambiguities in defining this type of fuzzy number. Here, we proposed the logical definition in developing a pentagonal fuzzy number, along with its arithmetic operations. Based on PFN, the structure of pentagonal fuzzy matrices (PFMs) is studied, together with their basic properties. Some special type of PFMs and their algebraic natures (trace of PFM, adjoint of PFM, determinant of PFM, etc.) are discussed in this article. Finally, the notion of nilpotent PFM, comparable PFM, and constant PFMs, with their many properties, are highlighted in this article.
