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

The area of a regular hexagon with a perimeter 120m is about 1039.2m2
The area of a regular hexagon with side lengths of 8cm is about 166.3cm2

Assuming same side length, the the heptagon with 7 sides will have a greater area than a hexagon with 6 sides. If the side lengths are not equal, then: If the side of the hexagon is approx 1.183 times that of the heptagon then the areas are the same. Thus when the side of the hexagon is less than ~1.183 times that of the heptagon it will have a smaller area; conversely, if the side of the hexagon is more than ~1.183 times that of the heptagon it will have a larger area.
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
