Just like the last one, but with 9 sides.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 40*20 right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no my bad it would be 40 *9 then i would divide 20 by 2
40*9=360 20/2=10 then times 360*10= 3600

No...

Multiply 1/2 to the apothem.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok it would be 20
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, and we need to find the perimeter, so multiply the side length to 9, since it has 9 sides.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok 20*9=180

29?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well, the perimeter is adding up all the sides, so just multiply 29 x 9 to get the perimeter.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok you are all confusing me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
261
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes, and multiply 20 to that to get your answer.
