Find the area of a regular hexagon if the apothem is 8sqrt3 m, and a side is 16m. round to the nearest whole number.
answer options: 998, 665, 222, 1330

SECOND OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the area of the regular hexagon you must apply the following formula:

Where P is the perimeter and a is the apothem.

The perimeter is:

Where s is the lenght of a side.

Then:

Then, the area is:

Option 2. 665 m² is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been given in the hexagon apothem is 8√3 and one side of the hexagon is 16 m.

We have to calculate the area of regular hexagon.

Area of hexagon = 6 × area of a triangle formed with one side of hexagon.

                           = 6 × 1/2( Base × height)

                          = 3 × (8√3 × 16)

                          = 384√3 = 665 m²

So the answer is 665 m².

10 cm

step-by-step explanation:

if the polygon is a rectangle, then the perimeter is x+x+y+y. using the values that you gave, the perimeter is 3+3+2+2=10cm.
