Given pyramid with a regular hexagonal base,
side length=6
√(3) cm
Height = 4 cm

We need to find the area of the hexagonal base. First step is to find the apothm,
a=side*(
√(3)/2
=6*3/2=9
So the area of each equilateral triangle making up the base
=base*apothem/2
=6
√(3) *9/2
=27
√(3)
The area of base = 6 area of each triangle
=6*27
√(3)
=162
√(3)

Volume of pyramid = area of base * height /3
=162
√(3)*4/3
=216
√(3)
