when I used cosine rule with r=7. I got total angle around 390. that's too much
I think the cosine and sine values are also approximate values. I don't know why the deviation is that much.
Can u please share your preferred solution to the question.
I might be wrong though.

No qualms. I was only eager to learn from you. Keep trying other possible solutions you might find one. Nice conversation by the way.

Smile no one has got it,
I will post solution later
Since it is already in frot page lets wait maybe someone will come with a solution

Simple

grin

Let's see using the sin rule

R divided by the angle opposite to the prime number chord

This relation holds for all the prime numbers chords...

The sum of the opposite angles equals 360

While the sum of interior angles equals n-2 by 180

Solve for the rest..

Can you through more light on your methodology, I don't see any positive result from your explanation yet, please explain more

Is it 7.4?

Approximately 7.4

Na so my brother, but next time make u just take the number before which is 7 and put . Anything eg, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5 Who get time as no time to waste time. If dem like make dem wrong am, e no kuku comot or add one naira to my pocket

Yo, I did it graphically grin . Was giving me a hard time.

I'd like to see the solution sha.

R 17 Or 7 no number can divide a prime numbers except itself and 1

Post them. I have tried to no avail.
Let the anglees subtended at the center of each sector

by the perpendicular line draw from the circle centre

@1,@2,@3,@4,@5,@6

@1+@2+@3+@4+@5+@6=180

Sin^-1(1/R) +sin^-1(1.5/R)+sin^-1(2.5/R)+sin^-1 (3.5/R)

+sin^-1 (5.5/R)+sin^-1 (6.5/R)=180

The substitute values into R to check which is the

closest to 180° note you should start from values grater

than 6.5 because height of the longest chord

h=√(R^-6.5)

Note walfrom aphal can't even compute that and get

numerical values, so only substitution works or graph it

Thus R =7.4233units.
Look forward to my next shape, I remain Mr shape your shape lover,

Make a sketch of the shape for your solution.

When you draw another line from the center of the circle, you'd form a 45 45 90 triangle. So 11=x√2, thereon you can solve for x

Is there any typographical error there cos u did not include 4.5 in the summation

There's nothing like "further" math, math is math.

But no this isn't in the f.math curriculum.

Smart method but not cool. I was a bit shocked that you resorted to trial and error and this makes the problem less interesting. This method can work for any polygon with sides of arbitrary length and you made it look like we were supposed to use a property of prime numbers to arrive at the solution.
