Perimeter of a Nonagon
The perimeter of a polygon is the total length around its edges. To determine the perimeter of a nonagon, which is a polygon with nine sides, it required to know the length of each of its 9 sides. The perimeter is found by adding up the lengths of all the sides. In the case of a regular nonagon, where all sides are of equal length, you can find the perimeter by multiplying the length of one side by 9. This can be expressed as:
Perimeter of a nonagon = Sum of all its sides
Perimeter of a regular nonagon = 9 times the length of one side (denoted as ‘a’ for the nonagon)
Example: What is the total length of the sides of a nonagon if each side measures 4 units?
Solution:
As we know the formula is:
Perimeter of Nonagon = 9 × Side length
Perimeter = 9 × 4 = 36 units
What is a Nonagon?
Nonagon, a polygon with nine sides and nine angles, is a geometric shape that captures mathematical intrigue and visual diversity. Whether regular or irregular, convex or concave, the nonagon takes on various forms based on the equality of its sides and the measurements of its interior angles.
In this article, we will learn the meaning and definitions, types, properties, area and perimeter of a nonagon, and angles of a nonagon, along with some solved examples.
