Find each angle measure. a. m AFB SOLUTION AFB is a central angle, so m 72°. ° 360 AFB = , or 5 Find angle measures in a regular polygon Warm-Up1Exercises EXAMPLE In the diagram, ABCDE is a regular pentagon inscribed in F. Find each angle measure. b. m AFG SOLUTION FG is an apothem, which makes it an altitude of isosceles ∆AFB. So, FG bisects AFB and m AFG = 1 m AFB = 36°. 2 Find angle measures in a regular polygon Warm-Up1Exercises EXAMPLE In the diagram, ABCDE is a regular pentagon inscribed in F. Find each angle measure. c. m GAF SOLUTION The sum of the measures of right ∆GAF is 180°. So, 90° + 36° + m GAF = 180°, and m GAF = 54°. Warm-Up Exercises GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 1 In the diagram, WXYZ is a square inscribed in 1. Identify the center, a radius, an apothem, and a central angle of the polygon. ANSWER P, PY or XP, PQ, XPY. P. Warm-Up Exercises GUIDED PRACTICE 2. Find m ANSWER 90°, 45°, 45° XPY, m for Example 1 XPQ, and m PXQ. Find the area of a regular polygon Warm-Up2Exercises EXAMPLE DECORATING You are decorating the top of a table by covering it with small ceramic tiles. The table top is a regular octagon with 15 inch sides and a radius of about 19.6 inches. What is the area you are covering? SOLUTION STEP 1 Find the perimeter P of the table top. An octagon has 8 sides, so P = 8(15) = 120 inches. Find the area of a regular polygon Warm-Up2Exercises EXAMPLE STEP 2 Find the apothem a. The apothem is height RS of ∆PQR. Because ∆PQR is isosceles, altitude RS bisects QP . So, QS = 1 (QP) = 1 (15) = 7.5 inches. 2 2 To find RS, use the Pythagorean Theorem for ∆ RQS. a = RS ≈ √19.62 – 7.52 = √327.91 ≈ 18.108 Find the area of a regular polygon Warm-Up2Exercises EXAMPLE STEP 3 Find the area A of the table top. 1 Formula for area of regular polygon A = 2 aP 1 ≈ 2 (18.108)(120) Substitute. ≈ 1086.5 Simplify. ANSWER So, the area you are covering with tiles is about 1086.5 square inches. Find the perimeter and area of a regular polygon Warm-Up3Exercises EXAMPLE A regular nonagon is inscribed in a circle with radius 4 units. Find the perimeter and area of the nonagon. SOLUTION 360° The measure of central JLK is 9 , or 40°. Apothem LM bisects the central angle, so m KLM is 20°. To find the lengths of the legs, use trigonometric ratios for right ∆ KLM. Find the perimeter and area of a regular polygon Warm-Up3Exercises EXAMPLE 4 sin 20° = MK LK LM cos 20° = LK sin 20° = MK 4 cos 20° = LM 4 sin 20° = MK 4 cos 20° = LM The regular nonagon has side length s = 2MK = 2(4 sin 20°) = 8 sin 20° and apothem a = LM = 4 cos 20°. Find the perimeter and area of a regular polygon Warm-Up3Exercises EXAMPLE ANSWER So, the perimeter is P = 9s = 9(8 sin 20°) = 72 sin 20° ≈ 24.6 units, 1 1 and the area is A = aP = (4 cos 20°)(72 sin 20°) 2 2 ≈ 46.3 square units.
