Let n be a positive integer and n ≥ 2 .
The area A = 2 n ( ∫ 0 4 n π tan 2 ( n θ ) d θ + ∫ 4 n π 2 n π cot 2 ( n θ ) d θ ) = 2 n ( ∫ 0 4 n π ( sec 2 ( n θ ) − 1 ) d θ + ∫ 4 n π 2 π ( csc 2 ( n θ ) − 1 ) d θ ) = 2 n ( n 1 tan ( n θ ) − θ ∣ 0 4 n π + − n 1 cot ( n θ ) − θ ∣ 4 n π 2 π ) = 2 n ( n 2 − 2 n π ) = 4 − π ≈ 0 . 8 5 8 4 0 7 .
