Question

Find the area of a regular hexagon with side lengths of 15 centimeters. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

we can use the formula of the area of a regular hexagon

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

where L is the length of the side

replacing

$\begin{gathered} A=6(\frac{(15)^2\sqrt[]{3}}{4}) \\ \\ A=\frac{3}{2}(225\sqrt[]{3}) \\ \\ A=584.567\approx584.6 \end{gathered}$

rounded Area of the hexagon is 584.6 square centimeters
