Assuming the octagon is regular (all sides of equal length), there are two formulas that can be used to solve for the side length:
Area = 2(1+2.5)s2, where s is the length of a side.
Area = 8(2.5-1)r2, where r is the internal radius.
The radius r = 8 ft/2 = 4 ft.
Using the second equation, the Area =~ 53.019 ft2
Plug the Area into the first equation solve for s:
s2 = 53.019/2(1+2.5) = 10.9807
s = 3.3137 ft.

To measure a square foot, you would need to measure a space that is one foot in length and one foot in width. This can be done using a measuring tape or ruler. Start from one end and measure 12 inches, then move horizontally and measure another 12 inches perpendicular to the first measurement. The resulting area would be one square foot.
In general, measure each side and add the measures together.In general, measure each side and add the measures together.In general, measure each side and add the measures together.In general, measure each side and add the measures together.
To measure a foot length you could use a ruler, a yard stick, a tape measure, or any object that you knew was precisely one foot long on a side or edge.
