Question

a rope of length 60cm is cut into two pieces, one piece is use to form a rectangule of length 12cm and width 6 cm the other piece is bent into a hexagon, what is the length of each side of the hexagon

Answer 1

The total length of rope is 60cm

One part is used to make rectangle.
So first We need to find the length of the first part I.e. the perimeter of rectangle

2*(l+b)=one part

2*(12+6)=one part

2*18=one part

36=one part

If one part is 36cm then other part would be 60-36=24 cm

A regular hexagon has 6 equal sides.

So the equation is like this

6*side=24cm

Side=24/6

Side=4

The side of a hexagon is 4cm
