How to draw the figure with four pentagons?
3
I want to make the next figure formed by 4 pentagons.
I can only do with two and still have a space between them. I can't even do the reflection of the two pentagons to get the desired figure.

draw[ultra thick,rotate=18] (0:2) -- (72:2) -- (144:2) -- (216:2) -- (288:2) -- cycle;
end{tikzpicture}
end{figure}

You can draw more than one shape in the same tikzpicture:
documentclass[a4paper]{article}
usepackage[brazil]{babel}
usepackage{graphicx}
usepackage{tikz}
begin{document}
begin{center}
begin{figure}[!htb]
begin{tikzpicture}
draw[ultra thick,rotate=18] (0:2) -- (72:2) -- (144:2) -- (216:2) -- (288:2) -- cycle;
begin{scope}[yshift=-3.22cm]
draw[ultra thick,rotate=198] (0:2) -- (72:2) -- (144:2) -- (216:2) -- (288:2) -- cycle;
end{scope}
begin{scope}[xshift=3.8cm]
draw[ultra thick,rotate=18] (0:2) -- (72:2) -- (144:2) -- (216:2) -- (288:2) -- cycle;
begin{scope}[yshift=-3.22cm]
draw[ultra thick,rotate=198] (0:2) -- (72:2) -- (144:2) -- (216:2) -- (288:2) -- cycle;
end{scope}
end{scope}
end{tikzpicture}
end{figure}
end{center}
end{document}
To make things easier, you can use predefined pentagons:
documentclass[a4paper]{article}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric}
begin{document}
begin{figure}[!htb]
begin{tikzpicture}[every node/.append style={regular polygon, regular polygon sides=5, minimum size=4cm, draw,ultra thick}]
node at (0,0) {};
node at (3.8,0) {};
node[rotate=180] at (0,-3.22) {};
node[rotate=180] at (3.8,-3.22) {};
end{tikzpicture}
end{figure}
end{document}
Off-topic: please note that placing a floating figure environment inside a non-floating center environment does not make much sense..

Similar answer to @samcarter, but using named nodes -- avoids having to calculate the distances. My motto: Let TikZ do the work!
documentclass{article}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric}
%% The size can easily altered by changing the minimum size
tikzset{pgon/.style={regular polygon,regular polygon sides=5,minimum size=1in,draw,ultra thick,outer sep=0pt}}
documentclass{article}
usepackage{tikz}
usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric}
tikzset{pgon/.style={regular polygon,regular polygon sides=5,minimum size=1.5in,draw,ultra thick,outer sep=0pt}}
begin{document}
tikz{%
node[pgon] (S) at (0,0) {S};
node[pgon,anchor=corner 2] (A) at (S.corner 5) {A};
node[pgon,rotate=180,anchor=corner 4] (B) at (S.corner 3) {B};
node[pgon,rotate=180,anchor=corner 4] (C) at (A.corner 3) {C};
draw[fill=purple!50,line join=bevel,ultra thick] (S.corner 5) --
(A.corner 3) --
(C.corner 5) --
(S.corner 4) -- cycle;
}
end{document}

I have modified the code slightly so that there won't be a problem with mitre issues at the top and bottom of the colored shape. Updated the output as well.

Update
I have modified the code slightly so that there won't be a problem with mitre issues at the top and bottom of the colored shape. Updated the output as well.

@marmot Good point. Making the change. Thanks.

Nice answer. When I compile your code, I do not get these very small purple triangles sticking out at the top and bottom(something like a miter line join at a sharp angle) . Do you know why they are there? What is your workflow to create the image?

@hpekristiansen Hmmm. I did not see the mitre issue to which you refer, even at very high magnification (MacTeX2019-Pretest). Still, I will modify the code above to take care of that problem... Thanks for your keen observation!
