Explanation:

this problem is based on mensuration of flat shapes, polygon

Octagon number of sides n= 8

The expression for the area of polygon given apothem and side

Is

Area= (n*s*a)/2

Given n= 8

s= 55in

a= 66.4in

Substituting our given data we have

Area = (8*55*66.4)/2

Area = 29216/2

Area = 14608in²
