The hexagon will consist of 6 equilateral triangles with 3 equal sides of 20 cm and 3 interior angles of 60 degrees.
Using the area formula: 0.5*20^2 *sin(60)*6 = 1039.230485 square cm.
The hexagon will also have 12 right angle triangles with a base of 10 cm and an hypotenuse of 20 cm.
Using Pythagoras' theorem the height of each triangle is the square root of 300.
Using another area formula: 0.5*10*square root of 300*12 = 1039.230485 square cm.

Can you tile a surface with a regular hexagon?
Yes you can. Envision a beehive - it is made of regular hexagons.
A regular tessellation can use four different regular polygons to cover a surface true or false?
I think it's only 3: triangle, square and hexagon.
Which regular polygons will not tile a surface?
An [equilateral] triangle, square and hexagon are the only regular polygons which, by themselves, will tile a surface.
How do you find the surface area of a regular pyramid?
Surface Area= 1/2perimeter x slant height + B * * * * * Perimeter = perimeter of base. B = Area of base.

What would a 3d hexagon look like from the side?
A regular hexagon cannot make a 3d figure because a regular hexagon tessellates. As a result t will make a large tiled surface. If the hexagon is not regular then the side elevation will depend on the shape of the hexagons and how they are configured.
How do you find the surface area of a regular hexagonal pyramid?
Hexagonal prisms cannot be regular. If you tried to make one it would end up being a hexagon since six equilateral triangles make a hexagon. Therefore, there is no surface area.

What is a flat closed surface that has congruent and parallel opposite sides?
That could be numerous polygons: a square, a regular hexagon, a regular octagon, a regular dodecagon ... Any regular polygon with an even number of sides could be your answer.
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 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 formula for surface area if the only measurement you have is the perimeter?
There can be no such formula in general. A formula will exist if the area is a regular polygon (or a circle).
