%F a(n) = floor(n^3/(4*tan(Pi/n))).

%F a(n) = n^4/(4*Pi) - (Pi/12)*n^2 + O(1). - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Jul 03 2024

%e Areas of polygons (starting from n=3):

%e 3.897... (equilateral triangle), so a(3) = 3,

%e 16.000... (square), so a(4) = 16,

%e 43.011... (pentagon), so a(5) = 43,

%e 93.530... (hexagon), so a(6) = 93,

%e 178.061... (heptagon), so a(7) = 178.

%Y Cf. A064313.

%K nonn

%O 3,1
