1 10.3 Areas of Regular Polygons The radius of a regular polygon is the distance from the center to a vertex. The apothem is the perpendicular distance from the center to a side.

2 Finding Angle Measures The figure is a regular pentagon with radii and an apothem drawn. What is the measure of each numbered angle?

3 Postulate 10.1 If two figures are congruent, then their areas are equal.

4 Theorem 10.6 The area of a regular polygon is half the product of the apothem and the perimeter.

5 Finding the Area of a Regular Polygon What is the area of the regular decagon?

6 More Practice!!!!! Homework – Textbook p. 632 #8 – 25 ALL.
