Is the radius of a regular polygon always greater than the apothem?
yes the radius of a regular polygon is always greater than the apothem
How do you find the area of a square using the radius and the apothem?
For a SQUARE, the area is (2r)2 because the length and width are the same. The apothem (radius) is used to find the area of other regular polygons.
Is the diameter of the circle always greater than the radius of the circle?
No, only if the diameter is bigger than the radius is the radius smaller than the diameter.
What is the apothem of a regular hexagon with a radius of 8?
3 times the square root of 3
What is the area of a regular hexagon if each sides is 11m the apothem is 9m and the radius is 10m?
297 M
Is the radius of a regular polygon always greater than the apothem?
yes the radius of a regular polygon is always greater than the apothem
How is an apothem different from a radius?
An apothem is a line drawn perpendicular to a side of a regular polygon from the center of the polygon. A polygon is not a circle so it cannot have a radius. The radius of a circle is drawn from the center to any point in the circumference of the circle. You can draw a circle which encloses the regular polygon touching all vertices. The polygon is said to be inscribed in the circle. The apothem will be less than the radius because the radius is not perpendicular to any side, it can be drawn to a vertex but the apothem is perpendicular to a side, so it is shorter. Ex: draw a square with a circle which inscribes it. You can see that the apothem will be less than the radius.
Is the apothem ever equal to the radius?
no

How many times greater is the radius of earth compared to Venus?
The radius of Earth is about 0.95 times greater than the radius of Venus.
What is the difference between an apothem and radius of a polygon?
One has a penis and one a vagina
Is the diameter of the circle always greater than the radius of the circle?
No, only if the diameter is bigger than the radius is the radius smaller than the diameter.
Why is the radius of an atom of iodine greater than the radius of bromine atom?
An iodine atom has one more principal energy level than a bromine atom. Therefore the radius of an iodine atom is greater than the latter.
What is the apothem of a regular hexagon with a radius of 8?
3 times the square root of 3
What is the apothem of a regular hexagon with a radius of 12 centimeters Round to the nearest tenth?
10.4 cm
Is the diameter of a circle is always greater than the radius of a circle?
Yes because it is twice the size of the radius.
Does a metal have a greater atomic radius or ionic radius?
A metal typically has a greater atomic radius than its ionic radius. When a metal loses electrons to become a cation, the outer electrons are removed, leading to a decrease in the ionic radius compared to the neutral atom's atomic radius.
