To find the surface area of a regular polygon inscribed in a pyramid, we need to know the apothem, slant height, and number of sides of the polygon. Once we have those values, we can use the formula:
surface area = 1/2 * perimeter * slant height + base area
Here's the code to find the surface area of a regular polygon inscribed in a pyramid in Go:
main.go1028 chars37 lines
In this example, we test the surfaceAreaOfInscribedPolygon
function by passing in the values of a pyramid with a regular hexagon inscribed in it. The output of the program will be:
main.go81 chars2 lines
This means that the surface area of the pyramid with a regular hexagon inscribed in it is approximately 290.74 square units.
