To solve the problem, we need to identify each polygon, calculate its area and perimeter, and determine its type. Let's go through each polygon step by step.
---
- Given: Side length \( s = 3.4 \, \text{ft} \), Apothem \( a = 1.7 \, \text{ft} \)
- Type: Regular Hexagon
- Perimeter:
\[
P = 6s = 6 \times 3.4 = 20.4 \, \text{ft}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Perimeter} \times \text{Apothem} = \frac{1}{2} \times 20.4 \times 1.7 = 17.34 \, \text{ft}^2
\]
---
- Given: \( a = 8.2 \, \text{yds} \), \( b = 4.5 \, \text{yds} \), \( c = 9.4 \, \text{yds} \)
- Type: Right Triangle
- Perimeter:
\[
P = a + b + c = 8.2 + 4.5 + 9.4 = 22.1 \, \text{yds}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 8.2 \times 4.5 = 18.45 \, \text{yds}^2
\]
---
- Given: \( a = 8.9 \, \text{ft} \), \( b = 4.4 \, \text{ft} \)
- Type: Rectangle
- Perimeter:
\[
P = 2(a + b) = 2(8.9 + 4.4) = 2 \times 13.3 = 26.6 \, \text{ft}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = a \times b = 8.9 \times 4.4 = 39.16 \, \text{ft}^2
\]
---
- Given: Side length \( s = 3.3 \, \text{yds} \), Apothem \( a = 1.65 \, \text{yds} \)
- Type: Regular Octagon
- Perimeter:
\[
P = 8s = 8 \times 3.3 = 26.4 \, \text{yds}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Perimeter} \times \text{Apothem} = \frac{1}{2} \times 26.4 \times 1.65 = 21.78 \, \text{yds}^2
\]
---
- Given: Base \( a = 6.6 \, \text{cm} \), Height \( h = 5.98 \, \text{cm} \)
- Type: Parallelogram
- Perimeter: (Assume side lengths are not given, so we cannot calculate the perimeter without additional information.)
- Area:
\[
A = \text{base} \times \text{height} = 6.6 \times 5.98 = 39.588 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
---
- Given: Side length \( s = 7.6 \, \text{mm} \), Apothem \( a = 3.29 \, \text{mm} \)

\]
- Area:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Perimeter} \times \text{Apothem} = \frac{1}{2} \times 60.8 \times 3.29 = 100.456 \, \text{mm}^2
\]
---
- Given: Side length \( s = 5.4 \, \text{mm} \), Apothem \( a = 2.57 \, \text{mm} \)
- Type: Regular Pentagon
- Perimeter:
\[
P = 5s = 5 \times 5.4 = 27 \, \text{mm}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Perimeter} \times \text{Apothem} = \frac{1}{2} \times 27 \times 2.57 = 34.815 \, \text{mm}^2
\]
---
- Given: Radius \( r = 1.25 \, \text{cm} \) (since \( s = 2.5 \, \text{cm} \) is the diameter, \( r = \frac{s}{2} = 1.25 \, \text{cm} \))
- Type: Circle
- Perimeter (Circumference):
\[
C = 2\pi r = 2\pi \times 1.25 = 2.5\pi \approx 7.85 \, \text{cm}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = \pi r^2 = \pi \times (1.25)^2 = \pi \times 1.5625 \approx 4.91 \, \text{cm}^2
\]
---
- Given: \( a = 5.8 \, \text{inches} \), \( b = 8.66 \, \text{inches} \), \( c = 8.9 \, \text{inches} \), \( h = 5.4 \, \text{inches} \)
- Type: Right Triangle
- Perimeter:
\[
P = a + b + c = 5.8 + 8.66 + 8.9 = 23.36 \, \text{inches}
\]
- Area:
\[
A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 5.8 \times 8.66 = 25.354 \, \text{inches}^2
