Work Step by Step

# 7.5 (Geometry: n-sided regular polygon) An n-sided regular polygon’s sides all have # the same length and all of its angles have the same degree (i.e., the polygon is # both equilateral and equiangular). Design a class named RegularPolygon that # contains: # ■ A private int data field named n that defines the number of sides in the polygon. # ■ A private float data field named side that stores the length of the side. # ■ A private float data field named x that defines the x-coordinate of the center of # the polygon with default value 0. # ■ A private float data field named y that defines the y-coordinate of the center of # the polygon with default value 0. # ■ A constructor that creates a regular polygon with the specified n (default 3), # side (default 1), x (default 0), and y (default 0). # ■ The accessor and mutator methods for all data fields. # ■ The method getPerimeter() that returns the perimeter of the polygon. # ■ The method getArea() that returns the area of the polygon. The formula for # computing the area of a regular polygon is # Draw the UML diagram for the class, and then implement the class. Write a test program # that creates three RegularPolygon objects, created using RegularPolygon(), # using RegularPolygon(6, 4) and RegularPolygon(10, 4, 5.6, 7.8). For # each object, display its perimeter and area. from CH7.RegularPolygon import RegularPolygon p1 = RegularPolygon() p2 = RegularPolygon(6, 4) p3 = RegularPolygon(10, 4, 5.6, 7.8) print("Regular Polygon1:\n", "\tArea:", p1.getArea(), "\n\tPerimeter:", p1.getPerimeter(), "\n") print("Regular Polygon2:\n", "\tArea:", p2.getArea(), "\n\tPerimeter:", p2.getPerimeter(), "\n") print("Regular Polygon3:\n", "\tArea:", p3.getArea(), "\n\tPerimeter:", p3.getPerimeter(), "\n") ©
