Best Answer

The area of an n-sided regular polygon with length of side t is equal to:

nt2 / (4 tan(180 / n))

Taking a simple example, if a square (n = 4) has sides of 2 inches (t = 2):

4 x 22 / (4 tan (180 / 4)) = 4

Therefore, the area of a square with 2 inch sides is 4 inches. Upon completion of the sum, don't forget to include the units of measure at the end.
