Area of a polygon?
If it's a regular polygon, and you know the length of the perpendicular from the center to the middle of a side, and the length of a side, A = LNS, where L is the length of the perpendicular, N is the number of sides, and S is the number of sides. See the link for a more detailed explanation of various ways to compute the area of regular polygons.
The center of a regular polygon is the common center for the inscribed and circumscribed circles of the polygon?
Correct.
Segment from center of regular polygon perpendicular to side?
Apothem.
What is a segment from center of regular polygon perpendicular to side?
Apothem.
In a regular polygon what is the name of the segment drawn from the center of the polygon to a side that is perpendicular to that side?
Apothem!
Segment from the center of a regular polygon perpendicular to a side?
That is called the apothem. The definition is: An Apothem is the distance from the center of a regular polygon to the midpoint of a side
What is the special name for the segment that connects the center of a regular polygon to and outer edge to form the height of a triangle?
The segment that connects the center of a regular polygon to an outer edge, forming the height of a triangle, is called the "apothem." The apothem is perpendicular to the side of the polygon and is essential for calculating the area of the polygon. It is also the distance from the center to the midpoint of a side.
The perpendicular distance from the center of a regular polygon to a side of the polygon?
Apothem
What is an apothem of a regular polygon?
An apothem is a line segment from the center of a regular polygon to the midpoint of a side.
What is an apothem?
The line drawn from the center of a regular polygon and perpendicular to a side.
Different parts of a regular polygon?
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.
How do you draw an Apothem?
To draw an apothem, first identify the center of a regular polygon and draw lines from the center to each vertex to form equal triangles. The apothem is the perpendicular segment from the center to the midpoint of one of the sides. To visualize it, draw a straight line from the center to the midpoint of any side, ensuring it is perpendicular. This line represents the apothem of the polygon.
What is the name of the segment that connects the center of a regular polygon to an outer edge?
It is an apothem line that connects the center of a polygon to the center of an outer side.
Which word describes the perpendicular distance from the center to one of the sides of a regular polygon?
apothem
