Question

A table is shaped like a regular hexagon. The length of one side is (7x + 4) in. and the length of another side is (8x − 1) in. Find the length of a side.
The length of a side of the table is

Answer 1

Answer:

39 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

As  it's a regular hexagon all sides are congruent.

Therefore

7x + 4 = 8x - 1

4 + 1 = 8x - 7x

x = 5.

So the required length is 7(5) + 4 = 39 in.
