A regular pyramid has a regular polygon base and a vertex over the center of the base. By:Cherrylvr :)
An apothem of a regular polygon is a segment from its center to the midpoint of a side. You can use the apothem to find the area of a regular polygon using this formula: A = pa/2 where p is the perimeter of the figure and a is the apothem. For a regular octagon with side length 11, the perimeter p = 8(11) = 88. So the area would be A = 88(8.85)/2 = 389.4 square units.
The perpendicular bisector of ANY chord of the circle goes through the center. Each side of a triangle mentioned would be a chord of the circle therefore it is true that the perpendicular bisectors of each side intersect at the center.
what about such a line segment? the length of such a segment is called the radius. the area of the circle is pi*the length of this segment squared the circumference is 2*pi*the length of this segment
A radius or a diameter.

An apothem is a line segment from the center of a regular polygon to the midpoint of a side.
The line drawn from the center of a regular polygon and perpendicular to a side.
A regular polygon has a center, much as a circle does. There are also the sides which are all the same lengths. Then there is the apothem which is any segment that goes from the center and is perpendicular to one of the polygon's side. Then angles are also parts and they are all the same. You might consider the perimeter a part and of course it is the sum of the sides.
It is an apothem line that connects the center of a polygon to the center of an outer side.

What is the special name for the segment that connects the center of a regular polygon to an outer edge to form the height of a triangle
You can find the intersection of the angle bisectors or the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of each side.
