By Apothem Length
The area of a regular octagon can also be computed using its measured apothem (a line from the center to the middle of any side). The formula for an octagon with side length s and apothem a is Area = a4s (apothem times one-half the perimeter)
So for this example, (7 cm and 8.45 cm) Area = (8.45)(28) = 236.6 cm2

By Side Length
The area of a regular octagon with side length s is given as Area = 4.828427 s2 , so for a regular octagon of side length 7 cm , the area is also about 236.6 cm2.

By Apothem LengthThe area of a regular octagon can also be computed using its measured apothem (a line from the center to the middle of any side). The formula for an octagon with side length s and apothem a is Area = a4s . (apothem times one-half the perimeter)So for this example, (8 cm and 9.66 cm) Area = (9.66)(32) = 309.12 cm2----By Side LengthThe area of a regular octagon with side length s is given as Area = 4.828427 s2 , so for a regular octagon of side length 8 cm , the area is calculated as 309.02 cm2. (indicating an error from rounding the apothem length)(This formula is generated by adding or subtracting the missing corner triangles.)
A = 1/2 * 10.49*7*8 = 293.72
The area is 212.1 square feet.
Area in square units = 0.5*(apothem)*(perimeter)

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.
A = 1/2 * 10.49*7*8 = 293.72
Area of regular 8 sided octagon: 0.5*7*5.8*8 = 162.4 square units Not that in fact by using trigonometry the apothem is slightly bigger than 7

If each side is 8 units in length then area is 0.5*10.45250372^2 *sin(45)*8 = 309.019336 square units
There is nothing in the question to indicate that it is a regular octagon and since that cannot be assumed, there is not enough information to calculate its area. Even if it were regular, the answer will depend what the 8-foot measure refers to: the length of a side of the octagon, its diameter, its apothem etc.
If the sides are of length 4 units then the perimeter is 8*4 = 32 units. Its area is then 77.255 square units.
