will give the area.

No. 350. Prob. 7. p. 254

To find the area of any
quadrangle.

Measure a diagonal
line and the perpendiculars
falling upon it
from the opposite angles;
and multiply the sum
of the perpendiculars
by half the diagonal;

regular polygon.

Rule.

Let fall a perpendicular
from the center of
the figure to one of its

together the perpendicular,
the side of the
figure, and the number
of its sides; and
half the product will
express the area.
