Find the area of the regular polygon with the given radius. Radius: 6cm. Area= apothem x perimeter/ 2
See 12:52am post.
A regular octagon with each side =11,4mm
To find the area of a regular polygon using the formula "Area = apothem x perimeter / 2," you will need to know both the apothem and the perimeter of the polygon.
The apothem is the distance from the center of the polygon to the midpoint of any side. Unfortunately, the radius given (6cm) is not sufficient to directly calculate the apothem or perimeter of the polygon.
To find the area of the regular polygon, we need additional information. The most useful information for finding the apothem and perimeter is the number of sides of the polygon or the measure of one of the angles.
If you can provide the number of sides or the measure of one of the angles, I can explain how to calculate the apothem and perimeter, and then find the area of the polygon using the given formula.
