Question

a. Suppose that the length of each side of the green equilateral triangle is 2 cm. Use this information to find the area of the red trapezoid and the yellow hexagon. Hint: You need a famous theorem to find the heights. Also, think about the relationship between the shapes.

b. The yellow hexagon is a regular hexagon. Use what you did in part a) to find the formula for the area of any regular hexagon. Hint: Regular polygons have a measurement called the apothem, labelled. Your formula must include the apothem. If it helps, call each side of the
hexagon s.

c. Which has the larger area, if any? How do you know? Find the exact area of one of them using the same measurements as above

Polygon with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. Based on the properties of each side, the types of triangles are scalene (triangle with three three different lengths and three different angles), isosceles (angle with two equal sides and two equal angles), and equilateral (three equal sides and three angles of 60°). The types of angles are acute (less than 90°); obtuse (greater than 90°); and right (90°).
