DENIUS [597]3 years ago

Answer:

The polygon with the smallest perimeter is the megagon

The polygon with the largest perimeter is the triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle with area = 20 has

0.5× a²×sin60 = 20

a= 6.796

Hence, perimeter = 20.39

A square of area 20 has perimeter= 4×√20 = 17.9

A regular pentagon of area = 20 has perimeter = 3.41 × 5 = 17.05

Hence as the number of sides is increasing, the ratio of the Area to the Perimeter also increases

Therefore, a triangle has the largest perimeter with an area of 20 while a megagon with a million sides has the smallest perimeter with an area of 20.
