Looking at LTF Polygons in a Circle, this applet will assist in completing the exercise.[br][br]The circle on the screen is a unit circle; however, you can change the radius to match any value you measure up to 8 units. The table will give the results up to a 100-gon.[br][br]Table format from LTF activity on Limits of a Polygon in a Circle, Module 8, Page 52 ff.. {now on Limits of a Polygon in a Circle ([url=http://www.nms.org/]NMSI[/url] was Module 16 LTF Mathematics).[br][br]Triangle ABC is triangle formed by the point A and any side of the polygon. The area of the polygon is the number of sides times the area of Triangle ABC.[br][br]If you expand the radius of the circle and can no longer see the figure, click mouse on point A and scroll the figure in and out...
