How Do You Find The Area Of Regular Polygons?
• The formula for finding the area of an equilateral triangle is (s^2)√3/4. Therefore, if a regular hexagon consists of 6 equilateral triangles, the formula for finding the area of a regular hexagon is 6 times that, or 6(s^2)√3/4.’; } s += “”; document.write(s); return; } google_ad_channel = ‘+7733764704+1640266093+9911500640+9016233241+8962074949+8941458308+7122150828’ + xchannels + gchans; google_ad_client = “pub-9543332082073187”; google_ad_output = ‘js’; google_ad_type = ‘text’; google_feedback = ‘on’; google_ad_region = “test”; google_ad_format = ‘250x250_as’; //–> • Identify the length of one side. (If you start with the perimeter, divide it by 6.) • Square the side. This gives you the s^2 part of the formula. • Multiply the result by √3. • Divide your result by 4. This gives you the formula for finding the area of an equilateral triangle. • Multiply by 6. Simplify the fraction, if applicable. • Divide 180 by the number of sides in your shape. • Write that number off to one side
