Probably the simplest way is to select any point inside the hexagon and join it to the six vertices. This will create six triangles. You will then need to measure the sides or angles of each triangle so that you have enough information to find the area of each triangle (3 sides, 2 sides and included angle or 1 side and two angles). Finally add the areas together.

You may not assume that the sides are of equal length since nowhere in the question is there even a suggestion that the polygon is regular.
