To find the area of a regular polygon, all you have to do is follow this simple formula: area = 1/2 x perimeter x apothem. Find the apothem of the polygon. If you're using the apothem method, then the apothem will be provided for you. Let's say you're working with a hexagon that has an apothem with a length of 10√3.
Step-by-step explanation:
but for a rectangle the area formula is
width*height
for a trapezoid area formula is 1/2(base1+base2)*height
The formula to calculate the area of a regular polygon is, Area = (number of sides × length of one side × apothem)/2, where the value of apothem can be calculated using the formula, Apothem = [(length of one side)/{2 ×(tan(180/number of sides))}].
