Find the area of a regular hexagon with the given measurement. 2/3 apothem A = |
|
Answer» ong>Answer: There are 6 sides to a hexagon. 360/6 = 60. So each angle GOING out to each side measures 60 degrees. We can split one side in half to create a RIGHT TRIANGLE which has a 30 degree angle. The adjacent is the apothem. We want to find the opposite of this triangle because it will give us half the length of the side of the hexagon. |
