area of regular hexagon inscribed in a circle of radius 6 cm

Question

to find area of regular hexagon inscribed in circle

Answer 1

Hexagon inscribed in a circle, so radius of the circle is the side of the hexagon.

Calculate the area of regular hexagon by using formula : A = (3√3 * a²)/2, where a = side of hexagon.

Substitute the value of a = 6 in the above formula.

A = (3√3 * 6²)/2

A = (108√3)/2

A = 93.53 cm².
