7-5 Area of Regular Polygons Regular Polygon : has all equal sides and all equal angles (equilateral and equiangular) Regular Hexagon:
Terms: Center of a regular polygon: is the center of the circumscribed circle. Radius: is the distance from the center to a vertex Apothem: the perpendicular distance from the center to a side of the polygon
What type of triangles are the 6 triangles? Isosceles Triangles!
What is the measure of each interior of a hexagon angle? 180(6-2) = 180(4) => 720 Total Interior Each interior = 720/6 = 120
What is the measure of each base angle in each isosceles triangle? 120 / 2 = 60 Use Special Right Triangles to find the length of the apothem
Area of a Regular Polygon: A = area s = side length a = apothem n = number of sides
Ex 1. Find the area:
Ex 2 Find the area: The diameter is 12
Ex 3 – Find the area of the reg. polygon if the side length is 12
Ex. 4 – Find the area of the reg. polygon
Ex 5. Find each missing angle
