Given regular hexagon ABCDEF, find the following apothem, Perimeter, and Area if side ED is 18 inches?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Apothem = %28sqrt%283%29%2A18%29%2F2 = 9%2Asqrt%283%29 in.


Perimeter = 6*18 = 108 in%5E2.


Area = 6%2A%281%2F2%29%2Aside%2Aapothem = 3%2A18%2A9%2Asqrt%283%29.

Regular hexagon comprises of 6 equilateral central triangles with the side measure of 18 in.
