The same is true if we increase it to eight sides and so on. For a polygon with 2n sides, the parallelogram will have a base of length ns, and a height h. As the number of sides increases, the length of the parallelogram base approaches half the circle circumference, and its height approaches the circle radius.
This is a list of two-dimensional geometric shapes in Euclidean and other geometries. For mathematical objects in more dimensions, see list of mathematical shapes. For a broader scope, see list of shapes.
Shoelace scheme for determining the area of a polygon with point coordinates (,),..., (,). The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula and the surveyor's formula, [1] is a mathematical algorithm to determine the area of a simple polygon whose vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the plane.

h = the height of the semi-ellipsoid from the base cicle's center to the edge Solid paraboloid of revolution around z-axis: a = the radius of the base circle h = the height of the paboloid from the base cicle's center to the edge
A filled triangular area with a base width of b, height h and top vertex displacement a, with respect to an axis through the centroid: The figure presents a triangle with dimensions 'b', 'h' and 'a', along with axes 'x' and 'y' that pass through the centroid.
A standard example is the Reuleaux triangle, the intersection of three circles, each centered where the other two circles cross. [2] Its boundary curve consists of three arcs of these circles, meeting at 120° angles, so it is not smooth , and in fact these angles are the sharpest possible for any curve of constant width.
Just as the magnitude of a plane angle in radians at the vertex of a circular sector is the ratio of the length of its arc to its radius, the magnitude of a solid angle in steradians is the ratio of the area covered on a sphere by an object to the square of the radius of the sphere. The formula for the magnitude of the solid angle in steradians is
