The area of the shaded region is 46,77
Explanation:
To determine the area of the shaded hexagon, we must first calculate te area of the whole shaded hexagon and minus that by the white little hexagon.
The formula to calculate the area of a hexagon is (3√3 s2)/ 2
(where s = one side of the hexagon)
if one side a the little white hexagon equals 6 ft;
3√3 6ft.2/2 = 18√3/2 = 9√3
now for the bigger hexagon where one side is 12 ft;
3√3 12 ft.2/2 = 72√3/2 = 36√3
now the area of the bigger one minus the area of the smaller one;
36√3 - 9√3 = 46,77
