P=perimeter s=sides h=altitude (distance from the center to a side at a right angle)
A=1/2aP
or
A=1/2(6s x a)
Edit - If the hexagon is regular, the area can be found by this formula:
3s^2 * 3^(1/2) / 2
Where s=side length of the hexagon and in this case squared and 3^(1/2)=square root of 3

Formula for the area of a hexagon?
The formula for a hexagon is 6x.5xsin(60)edge2 = 3xsin(60)edge2=2.598edge2.
Surface area of a hexagon?
There is no simple formula for the surface area of a general hexagon. The simplest solution is to partition it into triangles, calculate their areas and sum the results.
What is area formula of an irregular hexagon?
There is no standard formula. It is necessary to partition the irregular hexagon into more convenient shapes such as triangles and quadrilaterals, find their areas and sum the results.
What is the formula for finding the surface area of a hexagon?
Area of triangle = ½ base x altitude. Regular hexagon is 6 equal triangles so Area= 3 x base x altitude
Whats the area formula for a square?
base times height
