How to Find Area and Perimeter of Octagon?  

The area of an octagon is defined as the amount of space enclosed within the boundary of an octagon. It is measured in square units. The formula to calculate the area of an octagon is given by

 Area of Octagon = 2s²(1+√2) = 4.828 s² square units

Where,'s' is the length of the side of an octagon.

The perimeter of an octagon is defined as the sum of all lengths of the sides of an octagon. The formula to calculate the perimeter of an octagon is:

The perimeter of an octagon = sum of all sides of octagon = 8 × s

Where,'s' is the length of the side of an octagon.

Solved Examples on Octagon Calculator

Example 1:

Find the area and perimeter of an octagon whose length of a side is 8 units.

Solution:

Area of octagon = 2s²(1+√2) = 4.828 * s²

= 4.828 × 8²

= 4.828 × 64

= 309.02 square units

The perimeter of an octagon = 8 × s

= 8 × 8

= 64 units

Example 2:

Find the area and perimeter of an octagon whose length of a side is 7 units.

Solution:

Area of octagon = 2s²(1 + √2) = 4.828 * s²

= 4.828 × 7²

= 4.828 × 49

= 236.572 square units

The perimeter of an octagon = 8 × s

= 8 × 7

= 56 units

Example 3:

Find the area and perimeter of an octagon whose length of a side is 11 units.

Solution:

Area of octagon = 2s²(1+√2) = 4.828 * s²

= 4.828 × 11²

= 4.828 × 121

= 584.188 square units

The perimeter of an octagon = 8 × s

= 8 × 11

= 88 units

Similarly, you can try the calculator to find the area and perimeter of an octagon for the following:

• Length of the side = 7 units 
• Length of the side = 12 units
