If an n-sided regular polygon is inscribed in a circle of radius r, as shown in the figure below, tl n-isosceles triangles fill the circle. Circle b. -Inscribed polygon Based on the statement and figure above answer the following: 1. Express hand the base b of the isosceles triangle shown in terms of e and r. 2. Express the area of the isosceles triangle in terms of e and r. Use trig identities as needed. 3. Describe what happens as n goes to infinity, (notice the polygon fills the circle, the angle e goes t zero)

Based on the statement and figure above answer the following:
1. Express hand the base b of the isosceles triangle shown in terms of e and r.
2. Express the area of the isosceles triangle in terms of e and r. Use trig identities as needed.
3. Describe what happens as n goes to infinity, (notice the polygon fills the circle, the angle e goes to
zero)
4. Use special limit rules to discuss your response, you may use any graphing tool to support your
response.
Two-dimensional figure measured in terms of radius. It is formed by a set of points that are at a constant or fixed distance from a fixed point in the center of the plane. The parts of the circle are circumference, radius, diameter, chord, tangent, secant, arc of a circle, and segment in a circle.
