About this calculator
The Polygon Calculator is a browser-based tool that helps you find the area and perimeter of the shape. You enter your number of sides and side length, and it applies standard area and perimeter formulas to return the area and perimeter. Everything runs locally — no sign-up, no uploads, nothing stored — so it stays fast and private.
Designed for students, designers and DIYers, it returns the area and perimeter the moment you calculate — no sign-up, no uploads, and nothing stored between visits.
How to use
- Enter the number of sides (3 or more).
- Enter the length of each side.
- Press Calculate to find the polygon's measurements.
- Read the area, perimeter, interior angle, and apothem.

Technical notes
Polygon Calculator uses the regular-polygon area = ¼·n·s²·cot(π/n) for n sides of length s.
Results assume exact, idealised shapes; real-world measurement error is not included.
Results are rounded for display; the underlying calculation keeps full precision.
FAQ
Does this assume a regular polygon?
Yes. It assumes all sides and angles are equal, which is what the area and apothem formulas require.
What is the apothem?
The apothem is the distance from the centre of the polygon to the middle of any side, used to find the area.
How is the interior angle found?
Each interior angle equals (n minus 2) times 180 degrees, divided by the number of sides n.
Does the Polygon Calculator send my data to a server?
No. The Polygon Calculator runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded, stored, or shared.
Worked example
A regular hexagon with side 6: area = (3√3/2) × 6² = 93.53.
