  1. Area of a Regular Polygon Section 11.6

  2. Apothem of a polygon – Distance from the center to the middle of any side of a polygon. The apothem bisects the central angle. • Central angle of a regular polygon – Angle formed by two lines from the center to consecutive vertices of a polygon. The measure of the central angle is 360/number of sides.

  3. Area of a regular polygon a = apothem P = perimeter of the polygon
