Q
Q: If the perimeter of a regular hexagon is 72 cm, what is the length of each side?
Solution:
The perimeter of a regular hexagon is the sum of the lengths of its 6 equal sides. Therefore, each side is 72 cm / 6 = 12 cm.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that a regular hexagon has 6 equal sides.
Step 2: Know that the perimeter is the total length around the hexagon, which is the sum of all its sides.
Step 3: Since all sides are equal, you can find the length of one side by dividing the perimeter by the number of sides.
Step 4: Calculate the length of one side by dividing 72 cm (the perimeter) by 6 (the number of sides).
Step 5: Perform the calculation: 72 cm ÷ 6 = 12 cm.
Step 6: Conclude that each side of the hexagon is 12 cm long.
