drag and drop the selected option to the right place

Correct Answer

(1) The perpendicular distance from center to a side,Apothem
(2) The line segment from the center to a vertex,Radius
(3) Half the product of apothem and perimeter,Area Formula

Explanation

The apothem is the perpendicular distance to a side, while \(A = \frac{1}{2}aP\) defines the area.
