Answer:
area = 779.4 cm²
Explanation:
divide it into 6 equal equilateral triangles. Each corner of a triangle will be 60°.
tan 60° = 15/x
1.7321 = 15/x
x = 8.66 (this is one-half of the base of the triangle)
base = 17.32 cm
area of one triangle = 1/2(17.32)(15) = 129.9 cm²
129.9(6) = 779.4 cm² (because 6 triangles make up the hexagon)
