Answer:
11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the wire in centimetres = 124 cm
Side of the square = 14.5 cm
Perimeter of square = 14.5 × 4 = 58 cm
Perimeter of hexagon = Length of wire - Perimeter of square
= 124 - 58 = 66 cm
Perimeter of regular hexagon = 6 × side = 66 cm
Each side = 65 / 6 = 11 cm
Each side of the hexagon is 11 cm
