Step 1: Learn to spell octagon.
Step 2: Go find the correct measurements of your octagon. A regular octagon with an apothem of 6 units has a side length of approximately 4.83 units. An octagon with an apothem of 6 units and one of the sides that measures 5 units is not regular.
Once you know the correct values use 
where 
is the span of the octagon which is twice the apothem, and 
is the measure of one side.
