For get the length of apothem write sin60 = a/4 so sqrt3 /2 = a/4 so a = 4sqrt3 /2

a = 2sqrt3 

so area of base = 6(4*2sqrt3)/2 = 6*4sqrt3 = 24sqrt3 unit squared 

the lateral area = 4*4*6/2 = 4*2*6 = 48 unit squared 

total area = 24sqrt3 +48 = 24(sqrt3 +2) unit squared 

 hope this will help you

Answer:

113.57 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a pyramid with regular hexagonal base

= Area of slant sides + area of Hexagonal base

Area of one slant side = \frac{1}{2} (side of base) × slant height

                                    = \frac{1}{2} × 6 × 4

                                    = 3 × 4

                                    = 12 unit²

Since hexagonal pyramid has 6 slant sides.

So area of sic slant sides = 6 × 12 = 72 unit²

Now for the area of hexagonal base we will take triangle ABC.

∠BAC = 60°    [angle formed at center = \frac{360}{\text{number of sides}} ]

and ∠CAD = 30°

Now tan 30° = \frac{DC}{AD} = \frac{2}{AD}

\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{2}{AD}

AD = 2\sqrt{3}

Now hexagonal base area = 6 × [\frac{1}{2} (BC)(AD)]

6 × [\frac{4}{2} × 2\sqrt{3}] =  24\sqrt{3}

Therefore area of the pyramid = 72 + 41.57 = 113.57 unit²

Can someone help me wit #4 plzz

Answer: It represents the area of the two circular sides ("lids")

Explanation:

Imagine you made a cylinder out of 3 pieces of paper. The cylinder can be decomposed into two circular shapes (radius r) and one rectangular piece with two side lengths: one is "h", the other has to be long enough to go around each of the disks, so it has to be 2*pi*r long.

So the term 2*pi*r*h is the area of the rectangular piece and pi*r^2 is the area of each of the "lids" Since there are two of those, the term 2*pi*r^2 represents the area of the bottom and top lids.
