Question

Find the length of a regular hexagon if the perimeter is 54 cm?
​

Answer 1

To find :  length of a regular hexagon

Given :  perimeter of regular hexagon  is 54 cm .

Solution :

• As per given data we know that perimeter of regular hexagon  is 54 cm .
• We have to find length of side of a regular hexagon  .
• We know that all sides of regular hexagon are equal .
• If '$a$' is the side of regular hexagon then perimeter is given by ,
• Perimeter of regular hexagon = $6a$

       $54 = 6a \\ a = \frac{54}{6} \\a = 9\ cm$

Hence , each side of regular hexagon is $9\ cm$ .
