Abstract

Area problems for triangles and polygons whose vertices have Fibonacci numbers on a plane were presented by A. Shriki, O. Liba, and S. Edwards et al. In 2017, V. P. Johnson and C. K. Cook addressed problems of the areas of triangles and polygons whose vertices have various sequences. This paper examines the conditions of triangles and polygons whose vertices have Lucas sequences and presents a formula for their areas.

Keywords: Fibonacci numbers, Lucas numbers, area of polygon
