The Octagon Side from Area calculator computes the length of the sides(s) of a regular octagon based on the area (A). A regular octagon Regular Octagon is an eight sided polygon where all of the sides are the same length (s).
INSTRUCTIONS: Choose your preferred units and enter the following:
Octagon Side(s): The calculator returns the length of a single side in meters. However, this can be automatically converted to other length units (e.g. feet) via the pull-down menu.
A regular octagon is an eight sided polygon where all of the sides are the same length (s). The Octagon Side equation is as follows:
s = `sqrt((A/(2(1 +√2)))`
where:
s - side length
A - area of octagon
An octagon is a polygon with eight sides. It is a geometric shape characterized by having eight straight sides of equal length and eight angles, each measuring 135 degrees. The sum of the interior angles of an octagon is 1080 degrees. Octagons can come in various sizes and proportions but maintain the essential characteristic of eight sides. Regular octagons have all sides and angles equal, while irregular octagons can have sides and angles of different lengths and measures. Octagons are commonly encountered in geometry and can be found in various contexts, such as in the design of stop signs, certain architectural elements, and decorative patterns.
