What is the area of a regular hexagon with a side of 4 and an apothem of 3 46?
Easy. Since the side is the base and the apothem is the height of the triangle, multiply them and divide by two to get the area of the triangle. 3 * 3.46 = 10.38 /2 = 5.19. Then multiply by 6 to get the area of the hexagon. 5.19 * 6 = 31.14. You multiply by 6 because you can fit 6 regular triangles in a regular hexagon. We've already found the area of one regular triangle in the hexagon.
What shape does 6 triangles make?
pentagon i think?
How do you find the surface area of a hexagon?
The surface area of a hexagon is the same as its area. You will normally need to split the hexagon into triangles, find their area and sum these.
What is the area of a regular hexagon if a side is 30?
The area is about 2338.27 square units, from the formulaA = 3/2 (sqrt 3) s2 or about 2.598 s2--Let's draw a segment from the center of the hexagon to the middle of a side. This segment is called the apothem. Then use the 30-60-90 triangle rule. If half of a side is 15, that means the apothem is 15√3.If we divide the hexagon into equilateral triangles, we get 6 equilateral triangles.So if we find the area for one of these triangles and multiply it by 6, we get the area of the hexagon. The area of a triangle is found by 1/2(b*h). The apothem is your height for the triangles. So plug the numbers in: 1/2(30*15√3). Solve: 1/2(779.4228) = 389.7114. This is the area of one triangle. Now we multiply by 6, and this becomes: 2338.2686
How many sides does the hexagon have more than the triangle?
3..
What is the Relation between area of an equilateral triangle and area of a regular hexagon with same sides using activity method?
In our example, the area of the equilateral triangle is 1/6 of the area of the regular hexagon
Area of the hexagon?
The area will depend on the shape of the hexagon. You may have to divide it up into triangles, calculate the area of each triangle and then sum the answers.
Which regular polygon could actually fit around a point leaving no gaps?
Triangle, quadrilateral or hexagon. Triangle, quadrilateral or hexagon. Triangle, quadrilateral or hexagon. Triangle, quadrilateral or hexagon.
What figure has the greatest area a triangle or hexagon?
The question cannot be answered without additional information. For example, it could be a tiny hexagon, and a great big triangle.

How do you find the area of a hexagon given the area of the rectangle formed by 2 diagonals and 2 sides of the hexagon?
L x B which gives the area of th rectangle then remaining we will have 4 equator triangle 1/3BH3 is the are for the triangle. cumulatively we will get area for the hexagan.
The area of a given hexagon is equal to the area of an equilateral triangle whose perimeter is 36 inches Find the length of a side of the regular hexagon?
The area of a given hexagon is equal to the area of an equilateral triangle whose perimeter is 36 inches. Find the length of a side of the regular hexagon.Click once to select an item at the bottom of the problem.
What is the difference between the hexagon and the triangle?
a hexagon has 6 sides and a triangle has 3
Formula of area and perimeter of a hexagon?
for perimeter add up the lengths of the six sides and for area divide the hexagon into six equilateral triangle, find the area of one, and multiply the product by six
What is the formula for finding the surface area of a hexagon?
Area of triangle = ½ base x altitude. Regular hexagon is 6 equal triangles so Area= 3 x base x altitude
How do you work out the area of a hexagon?
the Regular hexagon : Area=(1/2)*(radius of the inscribed circle)*perimeter units2 The irregular hexagon : Area can be computed by the scalene triangle method. from one of the points to the other vertexes,you get 3 diagonals and hence three scalene triangle. hence use the area of a scalene triangle=sqrt(s (s - s1) (s - s2) (s - s3)) units2 where s=(s1+s2+s3)/2
How does area of a triangle relate to area of a rectangle?
It is not possible to provide any kind of answer without information on the relationship - if any - between the triangle and the rectangle.
