Question

Hexagon

apothem = 15
side = 17.3
Find the area of this regular polygon. (Round to one decimal spot if necessary)

Answer 1

778.5

Explanation:

Answer 2

778.5

Explanation:

Area of any regular polygon = ( apothem * side length * number of sides ) divided by 2

Given information:

Apothem = 15

Side length = 17.3

Polygon Type = Hexagon ( its important to note that a hexagon has 6 sides )

* Plug in the given values into the formula *

Area =
`(15*17.3*6)/(2)`

15 * 17 = 259.5

259.5*6=1557

`(1557)/(2) =778.5`

Hence, area = 778.5 square units
