Example Question #6 : Areas And Perimeters Of Polygons

Find the area of a regular hexagon that has side lengths of .

Possible Answers:

$36\sqrt3$

$54\sqrt3$

$48\sqrt3$

Correct answer:

$54\sqrt3$

Explanation:

Use the following formula to find the area of a regular hexagon:

$\text{Area}=\frac{3\sqrt3}{2}\times \text{side}^2$ .

Now, substitute in the length of the side into this equation.
