Properties

Decagon

Polygon with ten sides.

Properties

A decagon has ten interior angles and 35 diagonals. If the decagon is a regular decagon, then each of its interior angles measures 144°. The apothem a of a regular decagon with a side length of c units is [latex]a = dfrac{c}{2 tan (frac{π}{10})}[/latex]

Formula

The formula to calculate the area A of a regular decagon of side length c is: [latex] A=frac{5}{2}a^{2}sqrt{5+2sqrt{5}} [/latex]
