Hello, I am a junior in high school looking for help to get a formula. I need this formula to solve an equation in which I want to know the number of sides in a regular polygon, where I am given the circumradius and a side length.
\n" ); document.write( "==========================
\n" ); document.write( "s = side length
\n" ); document.write( "r = radius
\n" ); document.write( "n = # of sides
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "angle = asin(s/2r)
\n" ); document.write( "n = 360/(2*angle)
\n" ); document.write( "--> \"n+=+360%2F%282%2Aasin%28s%2F2r%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"n+=+180%2Fasin%28s%2F2r%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
