If a regular octagon has a perimeter of 40cm, then each side is 5 cm.
To find the length of each side of a regular octagon with a perimeter of 56, we divide the perimeter by the number of sides. Since an octagon has 8 sides, we divide 56 by 8 to get 7. Therefore, each side of the regular octagon is 7 units long.
If the permiter of a regular octagon is 8z-16, then the length of each side would be the perimeter / 8 or 2z-2

You say these things to yourself: -- "The perimeter is the distance all the way around the octagon." -- "The octagon has eight sides." -- "So, if it's a 'regular' octagon, then all the sides are the same length, and each side must be 1/8 of the perimeter." -- If it's not a 'regular' octagon, then it has some longer sides and some shorter ones, and the perimeter doesn't help me find the lengths of the sides.
8 (measure of each side) x 8 (total sides of an octagon) = 64cm
An octagon is an eight-sided figure. If a regular octagon has a perimeter of 24 inches, then each side will be 24 / 8 = 3 inches.
7 feet
If the perimeter of the hexagon is 24 cm and it is regular, then each side has the same length, namely 24/6 or 4. Now that is also the length of each side of the octagon since they share a common side so its perimeter is 8x4=32 cm.
Octagon has 8 side. Total perimeter is 208 mm, hence each side = 208/8 = 26 mm
If each side is 1cm long then its perimeter is 8 times 1cm = 8 centimeters
By using the definition of "perimeter": you need to add the lengths of all eight sides. If it is a REGULAR octagon, you multiply the length of any side by 8, since all sides have the same length.
