What best describes the area of a polygon

Mathematics
1 answer:
never [62]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The area of any regular polygon is given by the formula: Area = (a x p)/2, where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter of the polygon. Plug the values of a and p in the formula and get the area. As an example, let's use a hexagon (6 sides) with a side (s) length of 10.

The area of a polygon is the two-dimensional set of all points surrounded by the sides of the polygon.

If you're looking for an equation, it varies based on the number of sides and the shape of the polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Apothem

A regular polygon is equilateral (it has equal sides) and equiangular (it has equal angles). To find the area of a regular polygon, you use an apothem — a segment that joins the polygon’s center to the midpoint of any side and that is perpendicular to that side (segment HM in the following figure is an apothem).

3 equivalent ratios for : 4/3, 12/14, and 6/9
Mariana [72]
<span>So the question is what are three equivalent ratios for 4/3, 12/14 and 6/9. The simplest way to get the equivalent ratio of some other ratio is to either multiply the nominator and the denominator by the same number or to divide the nominator and the denominator with the same number. I need to point out that it's not always possible to divide them and get a whole number. First: (4/3)*(2/2)=8/6, (4/3)*(3/3)=12/9 and (4/3)*(4/4)=16/12. Second: (12/14)/(2/2)=6/7, (12/14)*(2/2)=24/28 and (12/14)*(3/3)=36/42. Third: (6/9)/(3/3)=2/3, (6/9)*(2/2)=12/18 and finally (6/9)*(3/3)=18/27.</span>

June drove 116 miles and 5.8 hours at this rate how far will she drive in 5 hours​
Sonbull [250]
First we need to calculate how fast she was going in one hour:
116 / 5.8 = 20

then multiply that by 5 to get how far she will go in 5 hours

20 * 5 = 100
