There is nothing in the question that allows you to assume that the hexagon is regular and so there is are no simple formulae. You will need to divide up the hexagon into simpler shapes. For example, pick any point inside the hexagon and join it to all the vertices. You will get six triangles. Calculate the area of each triangle and then and these areas together. Similarly, measure each side of the hexagon and add them together to get the perimeter.

In general you cannot find the perimeter of any shape if only the area is given.
How to do find hexagon
To find the area of a regular hexagon, you can use the formula: Area = (Perimeter × Apothem) / 2. The perimeter of the hexagon is 6 times the side length, so for a side length of 2 cm, the perimeter is 12 cm. Substituting the values into the formula gives: Area = (12 cm × 1.7 cm) / 2 = 10.2 cm². Thus, the area of the hexagon is 10.2 cm².
Measure and add the lengths together.
The perimeter of a hexagon with sides measuring 6 cm each would be 36 cm. To find the perimeter, you would simply add up the length of all six sides.
