Answer:
The Perimeter of the polygon is P = ns.
As n increases to very large numbers, the Regular Polygon looks more and more like a Circle. The Perimeter becomes the Circumference and the Area becomes:
Area_Cirle = (1/2)*C*r = (1/2)*(C/D)*r*D = (1/2)*(pi)*r*(2r)
Area_Cirle = (pi)*r^2 = πr^2
=====
A car wheel with Diameter, D = 77 cm = 0.77 m, has a Circumference, C = π D = π * 0.77 m.
To cover a distance of 72.6 m, the wheel will have to rotate 72.6 m / (π * 0.77 m) ≈ 30.01207498304312 ≈ 30.0 times.
