Answer: 10.2 cm^2
Explanation:
A regular hexagon is composed of 6 regular triangles whose area is equal to half of the product of the apothem and side.
A - triangle = (1/2)(a)(s) = (1/2)(1.7 cm)(2 cm) = 1.7 cm²
Multiplying this area by 6 to get the area of the hexagon gives us the answer which is 10.2 cm².
