First you take the oxtagon's width (W) and you apply unto that Grieg's Constant (H) and multiply both by pi^8. The formula would be:

H/W (pi^5) = x

What is the surface area of the octagon if the octagon height is 17' -0 and base is 13' -6?

If an octagon has a height of 17' and a base of 13'6" then it is not a regular octagon. In that case, a lot more information is required before its area can be calculated.


What is the length of each side of a regular octagon that has a total height of 85 inches.?

I'm not sure what you mean by "total height". I guess you mean the perpendicular distance between two parallel opposite sides. Draw the two diagonals to the opposite vertices from one side; they meet at the centre of the octagon, creating an isosceles triangle with the side of the octagon. The perpendicular height from the centre to the side is height/2 The angle at the centre is 360°/8 = 45° (as there are 8 such triangles). The angle at each end of the octagon side is (180° - 45°)/2 = 62.5° Drop a perpendicular from the centre of the octagon to the side of the octagon in this triangle. This forms a right angle triangle with one side height octagon/2, side octagon/2 and hypotenuse largest diagonal/2 → Tan 62.5° = (height/2) / (side/2) = height/side → side = height/tan 62.5° = 85in/tan 62.5° ≈ 44.25 in

How do you find the perimeter of a regular octagon?

The perimeter of a octagon is the sum of all its sides.


Is an octagon a polyhedron?

Adding to what Kittenono said, an octagon is a two dimensional shape which only has length and width. A polyhedron is 3 dimensional which has length, width and height.


How long is each side of a 17.25 inch octagon?

There is insufficient information to answer the question. There is no indication that the octagon is regular and therefore, you may not assume that it is. Even it you were told that it is a regular octagon, there is still insufficient information: the answer will depend on what the 17.25 inch is a measure of - the diagonal of the octagon or its height (width).

How do you find surface area and volume of an octagonal prism?

If the octagon at the base is regular, the side of the octagon is s and the height of the prism is h, the area of each octagonal base (Ab) is Ab = 2(√2 +1) s2 The perimeter of the octagon is P = 8s Then the surface area of the prism is As = 2 Ab + Ph The volume of the prism is V = Ab h
