...the regular polygons whose sides are unity, or 1, be calculated and arranged in the following TABLE. Now, since the areas of similar polygons are to each other as the squares of their homologous sides (B. IV., P. 27), we have, n 1 : any side squared : : tabular area : area. Hence, to find the area of...
