The area of the screw head is 93.5m².

<h3>How to calculate the area?</h3>

The area of the hexagon can be illustrated based on the formula:

A = 3✓3/2 × a²

Base = 12.

Height = 3.

Area of each triangle = 0.5 × 12 × 3 = 18

Area of the rectangle = 12 × 6 = 72

Therefore the area of the screw head will be:

= 3√3/2 × 72

= 93.5m²
