What is the area (in sq cm) of a regular hexagon of side 16 cm? |
384\(\sqrt{3}\) 334\(\sqrt{3}\) 382\(\sqrt{3}\) 584\(\sqrt{3}\) |
384\(\sqrt{3}\) |
Area of regular hexagon = 6 × area of one equilateral triangle. = 6 × \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\) a2 = 6 × \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\) 162 = 6 × \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\) × 256 = 384\(\sqrt{3}\) |
