A regular polygon inscribed in a circle can be used to derive the formula for the area of a circle. The polygon area can be expressed in terms of the area of a triangle. Let s be the side length of the polygon, let r be the hypotenuse of the right triangle, let h be the height of the triangle, and let n be the number of sides of the regular polygon. polygon area = n(12sh) Which statement is true? As h increases, s approaches r so that rh approaches r². As r increases, h approaches r so that rh approaches r². As s increases, h approaches r so that rh approaches r². As n increases, h approaches r so that rh approaches r².

In this exercise it is necessary to have knowledge about polygons, so we have to:

Letter D

Then using the formula for the area of a regular polygon we find that:

So from this way we were not able to identify the option that best corresponds to this alternative.

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to get the area of a regular polygon in a circle will be,

Area =

        =

Here 'n' is the number of sides.

If n increases, h approaches r so that 'rh' approaches r².

In other words, if the number of sides of the polygon gets increased, area of the polygon approaches the area of the circle.

Therefore, Option (4) will be the answer.
