Question

Find the area of a regular

polygon with 7 sides, an apothem
of 8 meters and a side length of
7.7 meters. Round to the nearest
tenth.​

Answer 1

215.6 meters squared

Explanation:

Answer 2

215.6 m²

Explanation:

The area (A) of a regular polygon is

A =
`(1)/(2)` perimeter × apothem

perimeter = 7 × 7.7 = 53.9 m, hence

A = 0.5 × 53.9 × 8 = 215.6 m²
