The following two methods can find the area of a regular heptagon. These methods will not work on an irregular heptagon.
Multiply the length of one side by 7/4 and then by the cotangent of a 25 5/7 degree angle. Multiply the perimeter by the distance from the center to the middle of a side, then divide by two.
You must know the length of a side to calculate the area of a heptagon.
Area = n (s/2)^2 / tan( pi /n)
where n=7; s=side length
A septagon is a seven sided figure. Given a regular septagon (with seven sides of equal length), the formula for the area is 7/4 (a^2) * cot (180 degrees/7), where a is the length of one side.

∙ 8y agoThe answer will depend on what information you have about the sides and/or angles. If it is a regular heptagon then there are formulae based on the side length, apothem or circumradius. Otherwise you will need to divide the septagon into triangles and find the area of each one and add all the constituent parts together.

What has a greater area heptagon or hexagon?
Assuming same side length, the the heptagon with 7 sides will have a greater area than a hexagon with 6 sides. If the side lengths are not equal, then: If the side of the hexagon is approx 1.183 times that of the heptagon then the areas are the same. Thus when the side of the hexagon is less than ~1.183 times that of the heptagon it will have a smaller area; conversely, if the side of the hexagon is more than ~1.183 times that of the heptagon it will have a larger area.

How find the area of an irregular heptagon?
For any irregular shape, you must divide it into shapes that are regular and find the area of those then add up all of the parts to find the area of the whole.

Area of a heptagon?
A regular heptagon has a distinct formula for determining its area based on the length of one side. Its area is equal to 7/4 * s^2, multiplied by the cotangent of (180 degrees/7).

What is the area of the regular heptagon if the apothem is 16 and the perimeter of the heptagon is 15.44?
The area of a regular polygon is equal to (1/2)pa, where p is the perimeter and a is the apothegm. The area of this polygon is (1/2)(15.44)(16), which is 123.52 square units.
