Find the perimeter of a regular octagon if one side has a measure of 8 cm.
A regular octagon is a polygon with eight congruent sides. The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of all its sides.
Answer: The perimeter of a regular octagon with a side of 8 cm is 64 cm.
Let's find the perimeter.
Explanation:
Given: Side length = 8 cm
The perimeter of a regular polygon can be calculated by multiplying the number of sides with the length of each side.
⇒ Perimeter = 8 × 8 cm [An octagon has 8 sides]
⇒ Perimeter = 64 cm.
We can calculate the perimeter using a perimeter calculator.
Thus, the perimeter of a regular octagon with a side of 8 cm is 64 cm.
