Irregular Figures How would you find the area of this figure?
Area of Irregular Figures 2 different ways… 1 st Method: 1. Break the irregular shape up into known figures. 2. Find the area of each known figure. 3. Add all areas together to find the area of the irregular figure.
Area of Irregular Figures 2 different ways… 1 st Method:
2 nd Method: 1. Fill in the missing space. 2. Find the area of the large, filled in figure. Then, find the area of smaller shape. 3. Subtract. Area of large – Area of small = Area of composite figure Area of Irregular Figures
2 nd Method: Area of Irregular Figures
Let’s Practice…
Regular Polygons P= perimeter a= apothem: perpendicular bisector; from center to side
Let’s Practice… Each side of the regular heptagon has length 14.7 cm, and the apothem is about 10.1 cm. Area _________ cm 2. (Round to the nearest 0.1.)
Let’s Practice… A regular octagon has area 690 square feet and side length 20 feet. Find the apothem to the nearest tenth of a foot.
