Given the hexagon with a radius of 10 inches

The apothem AB divides the side of the hexagon into two equal parts of 5 Inches as seen in the attached diagram.

Using Pythagoras Theorem

$10^2=5^2+|AB|^2\\|AB|^2=10^2-5^2\\|AB|^2=75\\|AB|=\sqrt{75}\\ |AB|=8.66$ in\\\approx$ 9 in (rounded to the nearest inch)$

The correct option is C

You will need 3.333.... cups of rice to make 10 servings of casserole.

Explanation

The recipe which makes 6 servings of casserole, needs 2 cups of rice.

Suppose, you need $x$ cups of rice for making 10 servings of casserole.

Now, the equation according to the ratio of "cups of rice" to the "servings of casserole" will be.....

$\frac{x}{10}=\frac{2}{6}\\ \\ 6x= 2*10=20\\ \\ x=\frac{20}{6}=3.333.....$

So, you will need 3.333.... cups of rice to make 10 servings of casserole.
