Question

anonymous · Answer

first of all u must know the formula of regular hexagon

anonymous · Answer

The area of a hexagon is given by this equation: A=2$$3\sqrt{3}/2 * L$$, where L is the length of one side of the hexagon. For a hexagon, the length of one side is equal to the lengths of all the sides.
