Question :-

Each side of a regular polygon is 3.6 cm and its perimeter is 21.6 cm. Find the number of sides of the polygon.

____________________

Solution :-

Given Information :-

  • Measure of each side of polygon ➢ 3.6 cm
  • Perimeter of the polygon ➢ 21.6 cm

To Find :-

  • Number of sides of the polygon

Concept :-

  • Area And Perimeter of Plane Figures

Explanation :-

  • In order to find the number of sides of the polygon, We have to divide the ' perimeter of the polygon ' with the ' measure of each side of polygon '. The resulting values will be the total number of sides present in the polygon.

Formula Used :-

  •  \underline{ \underline{ \boxed{ \boxed{  \bf  \red{number \: of \: sides \: of \: polygon =  \dfrac{perimeter \: of \: polygon}{measure \: of \: each \: side \: of \: polygon} }}}}}

Calculation :-

Simply, substituting the values in the formula, We get,

    \sf  {number \: of \: sides \: of \: polygon =  \dfrac{perimeter \: of \: polygon}{measure \: of \: each \: side \: of \: polygon} }

Substituting the values given, We get,

 \sf  {number \: of \: sides \: of \: polygon =  \dfrac{21.6 cm}{3.6 cm} }

Cancelling & Calculating further, We get,

 \sf{number \: of \: sides \: of \: polygon = \red 6}

Number of sides of the polygon = 6

___________________

Final Answer :-

  • The number of sides of this polygon is 6. This means that this figure is a Regular Hexagon.
