How to copy a sketch n times around an axis, and then join the sketches into a body?

Hello,

I'm very new to Fusion, and became stuck when I wanted to make an extruded pentagon that is curved to become narrower in the middle.

My question is, how can I copy a sketch (Image attached) around an axis 5 times, and join the sketches into the shape I described above?

So far, I have a sketch (Image attached). I tried revolving it, which got me close enough, but it is a circle when viewed from the top, which I want to be a pentagon.

If it makes more sense, is it possible to take an already extruded pentagon and bend its edges to the shape of the sketch above?
