Method 1: In order to find out the area of an octagon with a radius of 4 feet, we have to split the whole figure into 8 equal isosceles triangles.
Therefore, 
We will find out the area of one triangle and multiply the area with 8 to, figure out the area of the whole octagon there are 8 similar triangles and all of them will have the same area.

Method 2: From method 1, it would take time as there are too much of calculation, therefore we would go for the shortcut using the formula:

Area = 2√2 × r²

where r<span> is the radius of the octagon.
Substituting the values,
We get:
             </span>Area = 2√2 × 4²
             Area = 2√2 × 16
             Area = 2× 1.41 × 16 
             Area = 2.828 × 16 
            Area = 45.25

Rounded to the nearest tenth:

Area = 45.3 ft²

If we wanted to prove quadrilateral MNOP was a parallelogram, which method below would not work?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

4) Doing two distance formulas to show that adjacent sides are not the same length.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has opposite sides equals and parallel. Example of a parallelogram are rhombus, rectangle, square etc.

We can prove that a quadrilateral MNOP is a parallelogram. If we find the slopes of all four sides and compare those of the opposite ends, same slopes would indicate the opposite sides are parallel, hence the quarilateral is a parallelogram. We can also find the distance of two opposing sides, and slopes of twp opposing sides to determine whether it is a parallelogram or not. The most difficult approach is that diagonals bisect each other at same point.

However, using only two distance formulas will not give us enough information to determine whether a side is parallel or not.
