The area of a regular hexagon with an apothem 18.5 inches long and a side 21 inches is 1, 165. 5 In²
<h3>
How to calculate the area of a regular hexagon</h3>
The formula is given thus;
Area of hexagon = (1/2) × a × P
where a = the length of the apothem
P = perimeter of the hexagon
Given a = 18. 5 inches
Note that Perimeter, p = 6a with 'a' as side
p = 6 × 21 = 126 inches
Substitute values into the formula
Area, A = 1 ÷2 × 18. 5 × 126 = 1 ÷2 × 2331 = 1, 165. 5 In²
Thus, the area of the regular hexagon is 1, 165. 5 In²
