We know that the diameter of the inner circle (d) and the side of a regular octagon (s) are tied by the formula:
d = (1 +√2) × s
The inverse formula is:
s = d / <span>(1 +√2)
Plugging in numbers:
s = 7 (1 + </span>√2)
= 2.9 ft
Therefore the correct answer is A) <span>2.9 feet</span>
The equal length of the logs will be 200 feets each.
Since the lengths in feet of three pieces of timber are 144, 216, 240 and the operator wants to cut them into 3 equal sizea, this will go thus:
= (144 + 216 + 240) / 3
= 600/3
= 200 feets each
Therefore, there'll be an equal length of 200 feets each.
