Experimental line intensities of 1727 transitions arising from nine hot bands in the pentad-dyad system of methane are fitted to first and second order using the effective dipole moment expansion in the polyad scheme. The observed bands are nu3 - nu2, nu3 - nu4, nu1 - nu2, nu1 - nu4, 2nu4 - nu4, nu2 + nu4 - nu2, nu2 + nu4 - nu4, 2nu2 - nu2, and 2nu2 - nu4, and the intensities are obtained from long-path spectra recorded with the Fourier transform spectrometer located at Kitt Peak National Observatory. For the second order model, some of the 27 intensity parameters are not linearly independent, and so two methods (extrapolation and effective parameters) are proposed to model the intensities of the hot bands. In order to obtain stable values for three of these parameters, 1206 dyad (nu4, nu2) intensities are refitted simultaneously with the hot band lines. The simultaneous fits to first and second order lead to rms values respectively of 21.5% and 5.0% for the 1727 hot band lines and 6.5% and 3.0% for the 1206 dyad lines. The band intensities of all 10 pentad-dyad hot bands are predicted in units of cm-2 atm-1 at 296 K to range from 0.931 (for 2nu4 - nu4) to 7.67 x 10(-5) (for 2nu4 - nu2). The total intensities are also estimated to first order for two other hot band systems (octad-pentad and tetradecad-octad) that give rise to weak transitions between 5 and 10 μm.
