GUYS PLEASE HELP HELP HELP PLEASE!
Which equation can be used to find the perimeter of a regular hexagon with sides of length inches?

Answer 1

What?

Answer 2

i do not get it

Answer 3

A hexagon has six sides. If a polygon is "regular," all of the sides are the same length.
That's what I've drawn, a hexagon where every side is the same length (14").

The perimeter would be the total distance around the outside.

Answer 4

There are two ways to find that. Either add up all the sides or, since the sides are the same length, you could multiply the number of sides by the length of one side.

Answer 5

Uhhh @DDCamp

Answer 6

I'm not allowed to just give you an answer. However, in general:
\[p = n \times l\]
p is perimeter, n is the number of sides, and l is the length of one side.
