The logo for a company is a regular hexagon inscribed inside a circle. The logo will be painted on the side of the company's office building. The radius of the circle will be 8 ft. Find the area of the hexagon to the nearest whole foot.

Respuesta :


The radius becomes the side length of six isosceles triangles. Assuming each triangle is equilateral, the height of each triangle is 4*(sqrt3).

The total area is 6 times .5*4(4sqrt3)=41.56121938 or 42 square feet
