<PRE><B>Question 91325</B>
Heptagon has 7 sides.
Draw the picture including the 7 interior triangles.
Each side is 1000/7 = 142.86
A central angle of one of the interior triangles is 360/7 = 51.43 degrees
Draw an altitude from the center to one of the sides. That bisects the 
side.
Find the altitude using tan(51.43/2)=71.43/altitude
altitude = 148.32
----------
Area of one of the 7 interior triangles is 71.43*148.32 = 10594.58
Area of the whole heptagon = 7*10594.58 = 74162.08 sq meters
