Please Help me with this Geo Problem?

Answer 1

An artist creates metal
sculptures in the shape of regular
octagons. The side length of the larger
sculpture is 7 inches, and the area of
the base of the smaller sculpture is
19.28 square inches.
a. What is the side length of the smaller
sculpture?
b. The artist is going to pack the
sculptures in a circular box to take them
to an art show. Will the larger sculpture
fit in a circular box with a 15-inch
diameter? Explain your reasoning

Answer 2

The area of a regular octagon = 4.828a^2 where a is the side length. Use that to find the side length of the smaller sculpture whose base has area 19.28
