Given:

Number of sides in octagon = 8

Length of apothem = 14.1

Side length = 11.7

Required: Area

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a regular polygon is one-half the product of its apothem and its perimeter.

Here, the area of the regular octagon is


\begin{gathered} A=(1)/(2)ap \\ =(1)/(2)*14.1*8*11.7 \\ =659.88 \end{gathered}

Final Answer: Area of the regular octagon is 659.88 square units.
