What is the area of a hexagon with sides of 3 feet in length?

Answer 1

Jayden Jackson

The area of the hexagon is #"23.383 ft"^2"#.

The formula for the area of a regular hexagon is: #A=((3sqrt3*s^2))/2#, where #s# is the length of each side.

Substitute the side length of #"3 ft"# into the equation and solve.

#A=((3sqrt3*(3"ft")^2))/2#

#A=((3sqrt3*9"ft"^2"))/2#

#A="23.383 ft"^2"# rounded to three decimal places

The area of a hexagon can be calculated using the formula:

( Area = \frac{3 \sqrt{3}}{2} \times side^2 )

Substituting the given side length ( side = 3 ) feet:

( Area = \frac{3 \sqrt{3}}{2} \times (3)^2 = \frac{3 \sqrt{3}}{2} \times 9 = \frac{27 \sqrt{3}}{2} ) square feet.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
