1. Areas of Polygons 11.3

2. FORMULAS Rhombus: (1/2)d *d Kite: (1/2)d *d

3. Find the approximate area, to the nearest tenth, of the rhombus below. 12 in 20 in

4. Find the approximate area, to the nearest tenth, of the kite below. 8 in 16 in 6 in

5.  Apothem of a polygon – Distance from the center to the middle of any side of a polygon. The apothem bisects the central angle.  Central angle of a regular polygon – Angle formed by two lines from the center to consecutive vertices of a polygon. The measure of the central angle is 360/number of sides.

6. Area of a regular polygon a = apothem P = perimeter of the polygon
