What is the area of a hexagon with a side of 10 inches and an apothem of 8 inches?
The question cannot be answered. A regular hexagon with sides of 10 inches would have apothems of 10/sqrt(2) = 7.071 inches. Therefore the hexagon cannot be regular. And, since the hexagon is irregular, there is not enough information to answer the question.
What is the area of a regular hexagon with side lengths of 8 cm?
The area of a regular hexagon with side lengths of 8cm is about 166.3cm2
A regular octagon with sides of length 8 and an apothem of length 9.66 has an area of square units?
309.12
A regular octagon with sides of length 8 and an apothem of length 9.66 has an area of how many square units?
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 trampoline is in the shape of a regular octagon with an apothem of 8 ft. What is the area of the trampoline?
The area is 212.1 square feet.
