Use the diagram of a regular polygon to find the area3.44ft

5ft

1 answer

To find the area of a regular polygon, we can use the formula A = 1/2 * apothem * perimeter, where the apothem is the distance from the center of the polygon to the midpoint of one of its sides.

In this case, the apothem is 3.44 ft and the perimeter is 5 ft.

So, the area of the regular polygon is:

A = 1/2 * 3.44 * 5
A = 1/2 * 17.2
A = 8.6 square feet

Therefore, the area of the regular polygon is 8.6 square feet.
