The side lengths of an equiangular octagon are $1$, $2$, $3$, $4$, $1$, $2$, $3$, and $4$ in clockwise order. Find the octagon's area.
I don't know how to do this.

What do the dollar signs ($) mean?
This makes no sense to me.
If the octagon is equiangular (all angles are equal) , how can the side be of different lengths ?

Ms.Sue, just ignore the dollar signs
Reiny, when its equilangular the angles are indeed equal but that doesn't mean the sides are also equal. ( That's regular)

Mrs Sue thats what happens when someone copy and pastes a problem directly from some website. Those dollar signs when pasted into a console make the text regular, into times new roman font, and is boded.
