Answer:

A line segment from the center of a regular polygon perpendicular to a side is called an apothem.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line segment from the center of a regular polygon perpendicular to a side is called an apothem.

apothem =  Radius Cos(π/n)     n = number of sides of regular polygon

or

apothem = Side *  Cot(π/n) / 2            

The apothem (sometimes abbreviated as apo also)

apothem can be used to find area of regular polygon

as

Apothem = 2 * Area of polygon / Perimeter of polygon

Area of polygon = Perimeter  * Apothem /2

The correct answer is "Apothem".

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The duration from either the middle of the polygon to each of its side midpoints is considered as an Apothem. If anyone builds a circle inside that polygon which touches almost all of the edges, its incircle radius seems to be the polygon apothem.
  • There have been "n" possible apothems for such a polygon with "n" sides, mostly the same longitude with the instance.
