The anglesubtended at the center of each4 cm1.triangle is 360°/6 = 60°. The othertwo angles in the triangle add up to8 cm120° and are equal to each other.Hence, each of the triangles isequilateral with each angle 60° andeach side 8 cm. (Ans: 166.3 cm²)60°8cmZoom

Since it is given in the question that the regular hexagon is made up of six equilateral triangles.…

7. Determine the area of a regular hexagon which has sides 8 cm long. A hexagon is a 6-sided polygon which may be divided into 6 equal triangles as shown in the figure. The angle 4 cm subtended at the center of each triangle is 360%6 = 60°. The other two angles in the triangle add up to 120° and are equal to each other. Hence, each of the triangles is equilateral with each angle 60° and each side 8 cm. (Ans: 166.3 cm?) h 8 cm %3D 60° 8 cm
