Answer:

<h2>B. 861.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, you can observe that the shaded area can be found by calculating the difference between the area of the regular hexagon and the area of the rectangle inside.

The area of a regular hexagon is defined as

A_{hexagon} =\frac{Pa}{2}

Where P is the perimeter and a is the apothem.

By given, we know that the side of the hexagon is 22 units.

Remember that the perimeter is the sum of all sides, in this case would be

P_{hexagon}=22(6) =132.

The perimeter of the hexagon is 132 units.

Therefore, the area is

A_{hexagon} =\frac{132(19.05)}{2}=\frac{2514.6}{2}=1257.3 u^{2}

On the other hand, the area of the rectangle is defined as

A_{rectangle}=bh, where b is the base and h is the height. We know, by given

b=22\\h=18

Replacing these values, we have

A_{rectangle}=bh=22(18)=396 u^{2}

As we said before, the shaded are is defined by the following difference

A_{shaded}=A_{hexagon}-A_{rectangle}

Replacing each area, we have

A_{shaded}=A_{hexagon}-A_{rectangle}\\A_{shaded}=1257.3u^{2} -396u^{2}=861.3 u^{2}

Therefore, the right answer is B. 861.

Round to the nearest given place.<br> 1.80431<br><br> thousandths
rodikova [14]
In order to round a number to the nearest thousandths, we have to check the number in the ten thousandths place:
1- If the number in the ten thousandths is less than 5, then the thousandths number will remain the same and all numbers after it will be converted to zeroes.
2- If the number in the ten thousandths is equal to or greater than 5, then the thousandths number will be incremented by 1 and all numbers after it will be converted to zeroes.

Applying this to the given number: 
<span>1.80431
</span>The number in the ten thousandths position is 3 which is less than 5.
Therefore, rounding <span>1.80431 to the nearest thousandths will be:
</span>1.80400 which is equivalent to 1.804
