11 sides of 4.5 inches each sums to 49.5 inches = 4 ft 1.5 inches.
The length of each side is (115 inches)/(the number of sides in the polygon) .
If there is regular polygon(having equal sides), then perimeter is L*N where L is length of side and N is no. of sides. If polygon is not regular then may Perimeter is equal to sum of all sides, if size of each side is known.
Adding the lengths of the straight sides of any polygon will give its perimeter. In the case of regular polygons it will be the length of the side multiplied by the number of sides. But in the case of a non-regular polygon all the individual sides' lengths will be added to give you the perimeter.
Add the length of all sides. A regular polygon is a polygon where all sides and angles are congruent, so a shortcut is to know the length of one side and multiply it by the number of sides.
It is the sum of its 7 equal sides.
The length of each side is (115 inches)/(the number of sides in the polygon) .
The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the length of each of its sides. If the polygon is a regular polygon the you can calculate the perimeter as [number of sides] *[the length of one side]
If there is regular polygon(having equal sides), then perimeter is L*N where L is length of side and N is no. of sides. If polygon is not regular then may Perimeter is equal to sum of all sides, if size of each side is known.
A pentagon, which is a 5-sided figure, will have a perimeter equal to the sum of the lengths of all the sides. This will be true for any polygon; the perimeter of any polygon is the sum of the lengths of all the sides. If the pentagon is a regular pentagon, then the perimeter will be 5 times the length of one of the sides. For any regular polygon, the perimeter will be the length of one side times the number of sides in that polygon.
If the polygon has n sides, then the perimeter is 2.75*n metres.
Adding the lengths of the straight sides of any polygon will give its perimeter. In the case of regular polygons it will be the length of the side multiplied by the number of sides. But in the case of a non-regular polygon all the individual sides' lengths will be added to give you the perimeter.
Add the length of all sides. A regular polygon is a polygon where all sides and angles are congruent, so a shortcut is to know the length of one side and multiply it by the number of sides.
It is the sum of its 7 equal sides.
if i understand you correctly, the sume of the 6 sides is the perimeter of the octogon
Only if you know what kind of polygon you have. If you know that you have a hexagon and one side is 1 cm, the perimeter is 6 cm. You only have to know the length of one side, since a regular polygon has equal sides. Perimeter or a regular polygon is the length of each side times the number of sides. You need to know both pieces to find the perimeter. ■
The general formula isPerimeter = (sum of the lengths of all sides)In the special case of a regular polygon,Perimeter = (length of one side) x (number of sides)
you find the perimeter and then you times all the sides together
