if the perimeter of the heptagon (7 sides) is appr 44.1 ,then each side is appr 6.3
look at one of the 7 equal isosceles triangles that can be formed
area of one of those = (1/2)(6.3)(6.5) = 20.475
so the area of the heptagon is 7(20.475) = 143.325
or
appr 143.3
A regular heptagon has an apothem of approximately 6.5 ft and a perimeter of approximately 44.1 ft . Based on these measurements, what is the area of the heptagon?
