Can I have some help finding the area to this? Can someone also explain how to figure this out?? PLEASE
1 answer:
Let's separate the hexagon into 5 shapes; 2 triangles on each side, and a rectangle in the middle. Now let's find the area of each of the smaller shapes.
Top left triangle:
The equation to find the area of a triangle is
(base = b, height = h, a = area)
a = b · h ·
Now let's add in our values and solve.
a = 2 · 4 ·
a = 8 ·
a = 4
Now since there are 4 of these triangles, and they're all the same size,
4 · 4 = 16
All of the triangles put together = 16cm²
The middle rectangle:
The equation to find the area of a rectangle is simple:
(w = width, l = length, a = area)
a = w · l
Now let's put in our values and solve.
a = 4 · 8
a = 32
The rectangle is 32cm²
Now let's add the areas together.
32 + 16 = 48
The answer is <span>48cm²
Hope this helped! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, please comment or DM me. :)

I would make a table and plug in values for "x" in the equation to find f(x) or y
x = 0
(there is a rule that when the exponent is 0, the result is 1)
f(0) = 2 (0,2)
x = 1
f(1) = 6 (1,6)
You could do more points.
But these two points shows that the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0 or (0,y)) is 2, and that the graph is increasing.
Your answer is B
