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.
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
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
Triangle-least area, circle- most area, per given perimeter . The circle would have an area of 154 square cm. the triangle could have an area of almost zero if it were a long, skinny triangle. An equilateral triangle would have an area approx 92.8 sq cm.
The area is 0 square units since no shaded area is visible.
Area of hexagon= Area of original triangle/10
In our example, the area of the equilateral triangle is 1/6 of the area of the regular 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.
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.
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.

To calculate the area of a triangle - divide the length of the base by 2, then multiply that figure by the height. If the measurements are in centimetres, once you have your area - multiply your figure by 100 and you'll have the area in millimetres.
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
Area of triangle = ½ base x altitude. Regular hexagon is 6 equal triangles so Area= 3 x base x altitude
K, well there is no surface area of a triangle, because a triangle is a 2s figure. Surface area is for a 3d figure. To find the regular area of a triangle the formula is 1/2 of the base X the height :) gl :P
