Chamfered Square Octagon
Chamfered Square Octagon: a composite plane figure made of a square with side 6.8 cm, minus a square with side 2.83 cm, minus a square with side 2.83 cm, minus a square with side 2.83 cm, minus a square with side 2.83 cm. It is a classic middle school geometry problem (“Composite Polygons”). The net area is 38.24 cm² and the total perimeter is 22.51 cm.

Area of each basic shape before the Boolean composition.
How to find the area
Area formula: A = L² − 2·c²
The parts overlap or intersect, so the net area (38.24 cm²) comes from the exact Boolean operation rather than from a plain sum of the part areas.
