Question 465071: what is the area of jasons hexagonal garden?
theres a drawing of a hexagon with dotted line halfway on it from the bottom up and it is 5 square root 3 ft and each side of the hexagon is 10 ft what is the area? if u dont understand how i worded it can u please explain how to find the area of a hexagon? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
It depends whether your dotted line has one end at a vertex of the hexagon or at the center of one of the sides.
In the first case, the dotted line is equal in measure to one of the sides of the hexagon and the area of a regular hexagon with side measure is given by:
In the second case, you have the measure of the apothem, , of the hexagon and the area of the hexagon given the apothem is given by:
Good luck.
