Polygons: Introduction

Hard

(Originais Teachy 2024) - Question Hard of Mathematics

During a practical math class, 7th grade students observed the formation of regular polygons with stretched strings. The challenge proposed by the teacher was to determine the number of sides of a polygon based on its linear measurements. The teacher explained that to measure the perimeter of the polygon, the string should be stretched around all consecutive vertices of the polygon, and then the string measurement used to find the measurement of each side. Later, the concept of circumscribed circle was introduced, which is the smallest circle in which all the vertices of the polygon touch, considering it as the 'line' that delimits the polygon. Based on this knowledge, and knowing that the radius of the circumscribed circle to a regular polygon with 10 sides measures 30 centimeters, propose an algorithm that, receiving the radius of the circumscribed circle as input, determines the perimeter of the polygon and then calculates the measurement of each of its sides. The algorithm should be written in pseudocode, detailing step by step the necessary mathematical operations to find the perimeter and the length of a side of the polygon.
a.
The perimeter of the polygon is: 150 cm
b.
The perimeter of the polygon is: 377.964473009227 cm
c.
The perimeter of the polygon is: 94.4911182523068 cm
d.
The perimeter of the polygon is: 60 cm
e.
The perimeter of the polygon is: 188.9822365046136 cm

In a renovation, an architect decides to completely cover a right prism with a square base with ceramic tiles that are in the shape of squares. The prism is 3 meters high and the edge of the base measures 2 meters. The tiles are 20 cm on each side. The architect will need to calculate the amount of tiles to cover the entire surface of the prism. How many tiles will be needed to completely cover the prism?
