Hexagon is a total of 6 triangle
Let find area of one triangle the multiplying with 6
Area of a triangle is A=1/2bh
We know b=6 and h= (6(square root of 3))/2
A= 1/2x6x(6(square root of3))/2=9(square root of 3)
Where square root of 3= 1.732
Area of a triangle=9x1.732 =15.588
Area of Hexagon equals 6 area of triangle so
Area of Hexagon= 6x 15.588=93.53

The slide at the playground has a height of 5 feet.

Answer:

Assuming the slide is straight - 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the slide is straight - it creates a right triangle with long side 13 feet and one of the short sides of 5 feet. We need to find the other short side.

We know that:

$x^2 + 5^2 = 13^2\\x^2 + 25 = 169\\x^2 = 144\\x = 12 \vee x = -12\textrm{; but -12 doesn't make sense}$
