I have absolutely no idea how to do the following:
"In the diagram, ABCDEF....is a regular polygon with n sides and apothem OM. Let OD=r.
a. Express m<(angle)COM in terms of n. (I got .5n=<COM)
b. Use your answer to part (a) to express the area of the polygon in terms of n and r, using trigonometry."
So just let me know if I got part (a) right and please help to figure out what part (b) is. Thanks a bunch!
