just use this silly

Answer 4

I want to learn how to do it with my brain.

Answer 5

medal pls?

Answer 6

Ok

Answer 7

Do you know the formula for area of a hexagon?

Answer 8

No I don't, sleepyjess

Answer 9

Okay, the formula is \(\dfrac{3\sqrt 3}{2}*a^2\). In this formula, a is the length of one side

Answer 10

Area = (3*3(sqrt)/2) * a(sq)

Answer 11

60/6 = 10 units each side

Answer 12

inches*

Answer 13

Yep, so \(\dfrac{3\sqrt 3}2 *1-^2\)

Answer 14

That should be \(10^2\)

Answer 15

(3*(sqrt)3/2)*10(sq)
(3*(sqrt)3/2)*100
(5.2/2)*100

Answer 16

2.6*100 = 26

Answer 17

Does it tell you to round to a certain decimal place?

Answer 18

No I just rounded when doing the math, I rounded to the nearest hundreths

Answer 19

Okay, normally I keep it at the nearest hundredths, but you actually rounded to the nearest tenth

Answer 20

It's multiple choice here's the answers :
75 (sqrt of 3)
150 (sqrt of 3)
300 (sqrt of 3)
600 (sqrt of 3)

Answer 21

Oh, okay, they don't want you to multiply the \(\sqrt 3\). So we multiply the 3 *100, that will be \(\dfrac{300\sqrt 3}{2}\) Then just divide the 300 by 2

Answer 22

Okay
So 150 (sqrt 3)
