"The area of each hexagon is ~ 2338 sq ft
Area = ns^2*cot(180/n)/4 where n = # of sides and s = side length.

I don't understand these steps. Thanks.

That's the area of a hexagon with sides of 30 feet.

43560/2338 =~ 18.63 hexagons
18.63 = area of 1 acre/2338
========================================
Each hexagon is 7 trees, but 6 of them are part of 3 different hexagons

That got messy. It was easier to count the trees for 19 hexagons than to try to figure it out that way.
