The area of a polygon is given by the formula Area = ap/2 where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter. The apothem is a line from the center of the polygon perpendicular to a side.
Depending on the formula you know, you can find the length of a side in 1 of 2 ways.
The first way uses a triangle. Using the radius of the polygon you can create 8 congruent triangles. The center angle will be 360 / 8 = 45 and two side lengths of 20. You can find the length of the base using the law of cosines.
The lcm of all pairs of odd numbers is sometimes their product. Some examples: 3 and 9, the lcm is 9 not their product 3 and 11, the lcm is 33 their product and so forth
