That link should help you.  But if I am correct, I did a problem like this a while back. The formula normally is $$\frac{ number }{ n }$$ ^ would look like that. So like 6 over n for example.

ya that's for 6 sided..
and i think there is another for 8 sided..
but none has ever made one for an n sided irregular polygon
