Answer:

S =2
√(3)r^(2)

plus in the 9 and theres your answer

Explanation:

ok lets see here after some research

So a hexagon can be split into 6 equilateral triangles right? well,

each base of each triangle is equal to r *
(2)/(√(3) )

because of this, the area of each triangle equals

(
(1)/(2)) * (r *
(2)/(√(3) )) * r =
(r^(2) )/(√(3) )

because there are 6 triangles, it is 6 times greater.

S=
(6r^(2) )/(√(3) ) = 2
√(3)
r^(2)
