Area and Perimeter of a Concave Polygon



Area and Perimeter of a Concave Polygon

Unlike a regular polygon, there is no easy formula for the area of an irregular polygon. Each side could be a different length, and each interior angle could be different.

so we have to split concave polygon as triangles or parallelograms or other shapes that easy to find area . here is the example on how to calculate the area of concave polygon. in this example we could not directly find the formula for finding area but we can split this concave polygon as two parallelogram then we could find area easily by using formula for area of parallelogram .

* The perimeter of any polygon is the total distance around the outside.
* which can be found by adding together the length of each side.

I hope the above explanation was useful, now let us study words with x in them
