Question

A regular hexagon has sides of 2 feet. What is the area of the hexagon? 12 ft2 12 ft2 24 ft2 6 ft2

Answer 1

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a regular hexagon is given by:

$A = 6 (\frac {L ^ 2 * \sqrt {3}} {4})$

Where:

L: It is hexagon side

According to the data of the statement we have:

$L = 2 \ ft$

Substituting:

$A = 6 (\frac {2 ^ 2 * \sqrt {3}} {4})\\A = 6 (\frac {4 * \sqrt {3}} {4})\\A = 6 \sqrt {3}\\A = 10.4$

Thus, the area of the hexagon is $10.4 \ ft ^ 2$

Answer:

The area of the hexagon is$10.4 \ ft ^ 2$
