Find the length of each side of the polygon for the given perimeter.
P=48 cm

Answer:
length of each sides = 6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The above diagram is an octagon. An octagon has 8 sides . A perimeter is the sides or boundary that surround a shape. Since the octagon has 8 sides the perimeter can be gotten by adding the lengths of the sides .
The perimeter of the octagon is given as 48 cm. since the octagon has 8 sides to get the length of each sides one have to divide the perimeter by the number of sides.
Mathematically,
length of each sides = perimeter/number of sides
perimeter = 48 cm
number of sides = 8
length of each sides = perimeter/number of sides
length of each sides = 48/8
length of each sides = 6 cm
