Regular polygon area from circumcircle
Calculates the area of the circumcircle and of the regular polygon from radius of circumcircle and number of sides
Area of a regular polygon is the sum of area of a triangles it contains. Area of a triangle is
,
where a and b - triangle sides, and gamma is angle between those sides. For triangle in regular polygon a and b are circumradius, and gamma is 360/n, where n - number of sides. Thus area of polygon is
.
