Answer:

259.8 square feet

Explanation:

What is the area of a regular hexagon with sides that measure 10 feet and an

apothem that measures 8.66 feet?

The formula to solve the above question is given as:

Area = (3√3 s²)/ 2 where

s is the length of a side of the regular hexagon

Area of this Hexagon is calculated as:

= (3√3 × 10²)/2

= 3√3 × 100/2

= 259.80762114 square feet

Approximately = 259.8 square feet

The area of the regular hexagon = 259.8 square feet
