Regular Polygon Area Calculator

    Calculate the area of a regular polygon from number of sides plus side length, apothem, circumradius, or known area, with perimeter, angles, and radii.

    Enter an integer number of sides from 3 to 100 and one known value. Changing the unit converts the entered value and the current result.

    Area of a regular polygon

    English SERPs for regular polygon area calculator focus on a regular n-gon: all sides and all angles are equal. Users usually know the number of sides and one measurement such as side length, apothem, circumradius, or area.

    A is area; P is perimeter; a is the apothem, also called the inradius.

    n is number of sides and s is side length.

    Supported inputs

    Known valuesWhat the calculator returns
    Number of sides and side lengthArea, perimeter, apothem, circumradius, interior angle, central angle.
    Number of sides and apothemSide length is recovered before the area calculation.
    Number of sides and circumradiusSide length and apothem are recovered from the radius.
    Number of sides and known areaReverse calculation for side length and other dimensions.
    These formulas apply only to regular polygons. Irregular polygons need side-and-angle data or coordinate methods such as the shoelace formula.
