If divided by a line from one side to the opposite side, it will make an irregular pentagon.

How do you cut out a perfect hexagon?

Cut a straight line segment. At its end, rotate the paper in the scissors and make another straight cut. From the end of the second line, again rotate the paper and keeping ways from the earlier cuts, make yet another straight cut. Repeat for the fourth and fifth cuts. Then, rotate and cut, but this time finishing somewhere on the first line segment. You will have cut a shape with six straight sides: a hexagon.

Easy 7th grade math question how do you find the area of a hexagon?

Cut in half to make two trapazoids and find the area of one of the trapazoids. Don't forget to multiply the answers by two becasue you only found the area of half of the hexagon. If you want to get really tricky or forget the trapazoid formula then cut in in sixths and find the area of a triangle. Then multiply the answer by six.
