Here
AB = 23√ cm and OC = radius of inscribed circle
And triangle OAB is a equilateral triangle as we know we can form six equilateral triangle by regular hexagons diagonals .
So, ∠ OAB = ∠ OBA = 60°
And OC is perpendicular of AB and we know in equilateral triangle altitude is also median , so AC = BC = 2 3√2 = 3√ cm
Now in triangle OAC we get
tan ∠OAC = OCAC⇒tan 60° = OC3√⇒3√ = OC3√ ( we know tan 60° =3√ )⇒ OC = 3 cm
So,
Radius of inscribed circle = 3 cm
We know area of circle = π r2 , So
Area of inscribed circle =
=28.2857 approx 28.29cm² ( ANS.)
we know the circumference= 2 pi r
=18.857 approx 18.89 (ANS.)
hope it helps u
