58) How long is each side of a regular hexagon with perimeter 108 inches? a) 12 in b) 18 in c) 24 in d) 36 in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

18-6 sides

Parth (parthkohli):

A hexagon is a six-sided figure. Regular means that all sides are equal. So, one side = \(\Large \color{purple}{\rightarrow {108 \over 6} = 18 }\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 18 is the answer??

Parth (parthkohli):

Exactly,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

Parth (parthkohli):

Do you have more questions like these?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, a lot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ParthKohli: why?

Parth (parthkohli):

Let me give you the method to do all of them. Do you wanna know?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

Parth (parthkohli):

Regular(equilateral) triangle = 3 sides Regular quadrilateral(square) = 4 sides Regular pentagon = 5 sides Regular hexagon = 6 sides Regular heptagon = 7 sides Regular octagon = 8 sides Regular nonagon = 9 sides Regular decagon = 10 sides

Parth (parthkohli):

Make sure the word 'regular' is mentioned before you go on to solve these.

Parth (parthkohli):

\(\LARGE \color{purple}{\rightarrow {Perimeter \over Number(Sides)} = Side }\)
