Solution

The correct option is B 2
A(ΔAOB)=121×1×sin(2πn)=12sin(2πn)
Area of n sided polygon =In=n2sin2πn(i)


In ΔOBA,cosπn=1OB
OB=secπn
Area (OBA)=12(OB)2sin(2πn)
=12sec2(πn)sin(2πn)
Therefore, the area of n-sided polygon is given by
(On)=n2sec2πnsin2πn(ii)
InOn=n2sin2πnn2sec2πnsin2πn=1sec2πn
In=(cos2πn)On
=On2[1+cos(2π2)]
=On2[1+1sin22πn]
In=On21+1(2Inn)2
On1+1(2Inn)2In=2
