How to use the MathCalc Regular Polygon Calculator?

Step by step:

  • Step 1: Enter the number of sides in the first input box.
  • Step 2: Enter the side length in the second input box.
  • Step 3: Click on "Calculate" and the results will be displayed in a few seconds.

Example 1

  • Enter number of sides = 4 and side length = 7.
  • Step 1: Regular polygon with 4 sides, side length = 7
  • Step 2: Area formula: A = (n × s²) / (4 × tan(π/n))
  • Step 3: Area = (4 × 7²) / (4 × tan(π/4))
  • Step 4: Area = 49 square units
  • Step 5: Perimeter = 4 × 7 = 28 units
  • Result:
  • Area: 49 square units
  • Perimeter: 28 units

Example 2

  • Enter number of sides = 8 and side length = 12.
  • Step 1: Regular polygon with 8 sides, side length = 12
  • Step 2: Area formula: A = (n × s²) / (4 × tan(π/n))
  • Step 3: Area = (8 × 12²) / (4 × tan(π/8))
  • Step 4: Area = 695.2935 square units
  • Step 5: Perimeter = 8 × 12 = 96 units
  • Result:
  • Area: 695.2935 square units
  • Perimeter: 96 units
