Häufig gestellte Fragen
How do you calculate the area of a regular hexagon?
Use the formula S = (3√3/2) × a², where a is the side length.
What is the perimeter of a regular hexagon?
A regular hexagon has 6 equal sides, so P = 6a.
Why is the formula based on √3?
A regular hexagon is composed of 6 equilateral triangles, each with area (√3/4)a², giving a total of 6 × (√3/4)a² = (3√3/2)a².
What is the apothem of a regular hexagon?
The apothem (distance from center to the middle of a side) equals (√3/2) × a.
