We know that

[area of a regular hexagon]=6*[area of one <span>equilateral triangle]
</span>210.44=6*[area of one equilateral triangle]
[area of one equilateral triangle]=210.44/6-----> 35.07 cm²

[area of one equilateral triangle]=b*h/2
h=7.794 cm
b=2*area/h------> b=2*35.07/7.794------>b= 9 cm

the length side of a regular hexagon is 9 cm
<span>applying the Pythagorean theorem
</span>r²=h²+(b/2)²------>r²=7.794²+(4.5)²------> r²=81--------> r=9 cm

<span>this last step was not necessary because the radius is equal to the hexagon side------> (remember the equilateral triangles)
</span>
the answer is
the radius is 9 cm

Si un rombo tiene un lado con medida de 16 pulgadas. Cual es su perimetro . If a rhombus has a side measured 16 inches. What is

kap26 [50]

Answer:

64 inches or 64 pulgadas

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rhombus is given as:

P = 4a

Where a = side length of the rhombus

From the above question, side length of the rhombus = 16 inches

Hence, Perimeter of the rhombus = 4 × 16 inches

= 64 inches

La fórmula para el perímetro de un rombo se da como:

P = 4a

Donde a = longitud del lado del rombo

De la pregunta anterior, la longitud del lado del rombo = 16 pulgadas

Por lo tanto, perímetro del rombo = 4 × 16 pulgadas

= 64 pulgadas

Find the midpoint of the line segment with the given points.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

$\displaystyle (-\frac{5}{2}, 4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the midpoint formula to solve.

$\displaystyle (\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2} )$

$\displaystyle (\frac{0+-5 }{2}, \frac{3+5}{2} )$

$\displaystyle (\frac{-5 }{2}, \frac{8}{2} )$

$\displaystyle (-\frac{5}{2}, 4)$
