My answer: 36 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2.) The area of a regular octagon is 35 cm². What is the area of a regular octagon with sides three times as long? My answer: 315 cm². Is that correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 360 }{ n }~\rightarrow~n=number~of~sides \rightarrow \frac{ 360 }{ 10 }=36 º\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So yes, you're correct. :)

OpenStudy (phi):

they also want to know about angle 2. you have an isosceles triangle so you can figure it out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh right. So for the measure of the 2nd angle, you need to use this.\[\huge m∠2=\frac{ 180-m∠1 }{ 2 }\]
