What's on the worksheet

  1. Find the apothem or radius of regular polygons from the other, exactly:
    Square, R = 5\sqrt{2}. Find a.Equilateral triangle, R = 14. Find a.Hexagon, R = 12. Find a.Square, a = 9. Find R.Equilateral triangle, height 12. Find R.
  2. Find the number of sides from the angle in the apothem triangle, and angles for a decagon.
  3. Find the radius, side, apothem and a point's position for a square on coordinates.
  4. Find the radius, apothem and side of a heptagon badge from its height.
  5. Find the side of the decagon plywood that fits a 120 cm table top.
  6. Find where points exactly 7 from the center lie on the edge of a regular hexagon.
