If a regular polygon has 4 or 8 sides it seems to be inscribed so that all
points touch the square defined by the object’s height and width, which means
that it should be fairly easy to deduce the polygon’s area.
But with 3 sides, the triangle appears slightly smaller than the maximum size
that could fit into that square. Is there some math that would give me the
area of that triangle from the height and width of the square (i.e., the
official height and width of the polygon object)?
