Question

Help Needed!

Answer 1

Can I say this:

A = 1/2 * x * y

x = 10.4

12 * 6 = 72

y = 72

10.4 * 72 = 748.8

748.8 / 2 = 374.4

A = 374.4 yards^2

Answer 3

area?

Answer 4

Well, we already were given the apothem to be 10.4 yards.
The perimeter is the distance around our hexagon. But since we have the side length, and all the sides of a regular hexagon are the same, we can multiply the side length 12 by the number of sides 6 for the total perimeter. Is that clear?

Answer 5

Have you encountered this formula before?
A=\[\frac{ ap }{ 2 }\]
Where p is the perimeter and a is the apothem.

Answer 6

Okay soo...

A = 1/2 * a * p

a = 10.4

12 * 6 = 72

p = 72

10.4 * 72 = 748.8

748.8 / 2 = 374.4

A = 374.4 yards^2
