Question

Determine the area of the shape above. The formula for the area of a polygon is: Area = 1/2 (a n s) *

Answer 1

Explanation:

Area of a regular polygon is half the apothem times the perimeter, or A = ½ a n s, where a is the apothem, n is the number of sides, and s is the side length.

A = ½ (8.5705 in) (8) (7.1 in)

A = 243.4022 in²
