Answer:

1.75m

Explanation:

Given;

Perimeter of the hexagon = 10.5metres

Required

Side length of the hexagon

Since hexagon has 6 equal sides, hence the perimeter is expressed as;

P = 6a

a is the side length of the hexagon

Substitute the perimeter given

10.5 = 6a

a = 10.5/6

a = 1.75metres

Hence the length of each side of the hexagon is 1.75m
