Hexagon, how to figure?

Question

An area of 9ft.x11ft., how do I figure the area for a hexagon

Answer 1

The area of a regular hexagon with sides t is 3 sqrt ( 3 ) t² / 2.

To find the area of an irregular hexagon such as the one you describe requries far more information than you provide.

Answer 2

You must state clearly that it is a regular hexagon.

Let a be the length of a side,then

the total areas of the 6 identical triangles of base a=

99 sq.ft.

Let the height of a triangle be h measured from the base,then

h=a*tan60*/2=>

h=(3^1/2)a/2 ft.

(6/2)ah=99=>

3(3^1/2)a^2/2=99=>

a^2=22(3^1/2)=>

a=6.17 ft.(correct to 2 decimal places)

So,the hexagon can be constructed with a

Answer 3

Sorry, your question does not make any sense.  An area of 9 x 11 does not translate to: how do I find the area for a hexagon.  Check your source.

Answer 4

Ooooo!! a hexagon has 6 sides!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
