Question

Each side of regular polygon measures $4.6cm$. Find the sides of the polygon if its perimeter is $23cm$.

Answer 1

The Perimeter of a regular polygon $=23cm$

Length of each side $=4.6cm$

To find the number of sides we need to divide the perimeter by side length.

$=\frac{23}{4.6}$$=\frac{23}{46}\times 10$

=$\frac{10}{2}=5$

Hence, the polygon has $5$ sides.
