Let a be the radius of the circle. Then,
`S_(1)` = Area of regular polygon of `n` sides inscribed in the circle
`= (1)/(2) na^(2) sin ((2pi)/(n)) = na^(2) sin.(pi)/(n) cos.(pi)/(n)`
`S_(2) =` Area of regular polygon of n sides circumscribing the circle `= na^(2) tan ((pi)/(n))`
`S_(3) =` Area of regular polygon of 2n sides inscribed in the circle `= na^(2) sin ((pi)/(n))` [replacing n by 2n is `S_(1)`]
`:.` Geometric mean of `S_(1) and S_(2) = sqrt((S_(1) S_(2)))`
`= na^(2) sin ((pi)/(n))`
`= S_(3)`

In a `n-` sided regular polygon, the probability that the two diagonal chosen at random will intersect inside the polygon is `(2^n C_2)/(^(^(n C_(2-n)

Correct Answer - C When 4 points are selected, we get one intersecting point. So, probability is `(.^(n)C_(4))/(.^((.^(n)C_(2)-n))C_(2))`

The interior angles of a regular polygon measure `150^@` each. The number of diagonals of the polygon is

Correct Answer - C `(c )` We have `pi-(2pi)/(n)=(5pi)/(6)` `implies (pi)/(6)=(2pi)/(n)` `impliesn=12` `:.` Number of diagonals `="^(10)C_(2)-12=54`
