@uri HELP MEDAL AND FAN HELP The length of one side of a regular octagon is 16.7 m. What is the perimeter of this octagon?

OpenStudy (juicstice):

all you do is multiply how many sides there are with the length of the sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

??

OpenStudy (juicstice):

16.7m x 8. that is the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

P=133.6m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A regular shape is one that has sides of equal length. Each side of the octagon would be 16.7 m, so all you have to do is 16.7x8.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that equals 16.7*8=133.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Juicstice made a great explanation to this...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (juicstice):

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

"A regular shape is one that has sides of equal length. Each side of the octagon would be 16.7 m, so all you have to do is 16.7x8."

OpenStudy (juicstice):

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

im playing with you @Hotchellerae21
