The area of a regular hexagon is 60 in². find the length of a side. round your answer to the nearest tenth.
a. 23.1 in
b. 8.3 in
c. 6.3 in
d. 4.8 in

A regular hexagon is composed of six congruent equilateral triangles. Divide this total area (60) over 6 to get the area of a single triangle

60/6 = 10

Each triangle has an area of 10 square inches. So A = 10. We'll use the formula for an area of an equilateral triangle to solve for 's' (the side length) to get the final answer.























Each triangle has a side length of approximately 4.8 inches. So the length of each side of the hexagon is also approximately 4.8 inches.

Final Choice D) 4.8 in

A. is the answer in this question

The answer should be 5.
