Find the area $ A $ of a hexagon if incircle radius $r = 20$.

$A = 800 \sqrt{ 3 }$

STEP 1: find side $ a $

To find side $ a $ use formula:

$$ r = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$

After substituting $ r = 20 $ we have:

$$ 20 = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$ $$ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a = 20 \cdot 2 $$ $$ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a = 40 $$ $$ a = \dfrac{ 40 }{ \sqrt{ 3 } } $$ $$ a = \frac{ 40 \sqrt{ 3}}{ 3 } $$

STEP 2: find area $ A $

To find area $ A $ use formula:

$$ A = \dfrac{ 3 \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a^2 }{ 2 } $$

After substituting $ a = \frac{ 40 \sqrt{ 3}}{ 3 } $ we have:

$$ A = \dfrac{ 3 \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot \left( \frac{ 40 \sqrt{ 3}}{ 3 } \right)^2 }{ 2 } $$ $$ A = \dfrac{ 3 \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot \frac{ 1600 }{ 3 } }{ 2 }$$ $$ A = \dfrac{ 1600 \sqrt{ 3 } }{ 2 }$$ $$ A = 800 \sqrt{ 3 } $$
