The area of a regular polygon is given by the following formula:

$A=(P\cdot a)/(2)$

In which P is the perimeter of the polygon and a is the apothem.

First, find the perimeter of the polygon, you do it by multiplying the sidelenght by the number of sides, in this case, 6 sides:

$P=5\cdot6=30$

Now, find the area:

$\begin{gathered} A=(30\cdot4.33)/(2) \\ A=64.95 \end{gathered}$

The area of the polygon is 64.95cm^2
