Six equilateral triangles are connected to create a regular hexagon. The area of the hexagon is 24a^2 – 18 square units. Which i

netineya [11]

we know that

The area of the hexagon is equal to the sum of the areas of the six equilateral triangles

Let

x-------> area of one equilateral triangle

$6x=24a^{2} -18$

Divide by $6$ both sides

$x=4a^{2} -3$ -------> area of one equilateral triangle

To find an equivalent expression for the area of the hexagon based on the area of a triangle, multiply the area of one equilateral triangle by $6$

$6*(4a^{2} -3)$

therefore

the answer is

The equivalent expression is equal to $6*(4a^{2} -3)$
