Find a hexagon with a perimeter of 18 cm and, would you believe your luck! It will have 6 sides!
More seriously, though:
One possible way is to take a string and tie it into an 18 cm loop. Then attach 6 tiny rings to it and through each ring stick a drawing pin or nail. Lay the string on a sheet of paper ensuring that the string does not cross itself. Pull the sections of the string taut and you will have your hexagon. Remember that all polygons other than triangles are not rigid. So, just as you can flex a square into a rhombus, a hexagon can be squashed or made "fatter".

What does hexagon means and examples of shape and how to find the perimeter of them?
Hexagons are six-sided figures like a bee's honeycomb cells. The perimeter of a regular hexagon will be found by multiplying the length of one side by 6.
How do you find the perimeter for hexagon?
Measure and add the lengths together.
How do you find the perimeter of a hexagon if the area is given?
In general you cannot find the perimeter of any shape if only the area is given.
To find the perimeter of a hexagon multiply the apothem value by six?
No, that is not correct.
