You cut the shape down into smaller shapes that you recognise and know how to calculate the area of. Then calculate the area of the small shapes and add the all up.
Impossible to figure out. You did not mention any dimensions of the figure. You mush have the dimensions.
I can not tell you. It is because i do not know what shape the polygon is. You must tell me that first.
No. To be a polygon a figure must be "closed", that is, enclose an area. At least three line segments are required to enclose an area.
Perimeter and area are not sufficient to determine the shape of a figure.
The area of a polygon is not enough to determine its shape - unless it is a regular polygon. There is nothing in the question to suggest that the octagon is regular.
It depends on the prism. There will be different formulae for the bases depending on type of polygon and that will also determine the number of rectangular faces.
Figure it out stupid.

You multiply the length by the width.

The formulas for a polygon depend on the particular figure. A polygon can be a rectangle, triangle, pentagon, or many other plane figures. So, the formulas for area and volume will be different depending on the type of polygon you have.
A polygon is a plane figure which comprises one area bounded by three or more straight line segments. A general plane figure can have curved boundaries or sides that cross each other.
More information is required in order to answer this question. What is the shape for which the perimeter is given? If it anything other than a circle or regular polygon it is not possible to determine the area. For a circle or regular polygon, the answer will depend on the shape.
