The dimensions of a hexagon shaped bedroom are apothem = 5 and side length = 11. Find the area of the bedroom on the floor plan.

Respuesta :

Answer:

165

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a hexagon = 1/2 × apothem × perimeter

to find the perimeter of a hexagon we simply multiply the side length by 6 ( because there are 6 sides in a hexagon )

given side length = 11

so perimeter = 6 × 11 = 66

now to find area

remember area = 1/2 × apothem × perimeter

given apothem = 5 and perimeter = 66

so area = 1/2 × 5 × 66

1/2 × 5 = 2.5

2.5 × 66 = 165
