Find the perimeter $ P $ of a hexagon if long diagonal $d = 54$.
Answer
$P = 162$
Explanation
STEP 1: find side $ a $
To find side $ a $ use formula:
$$ d = 2 \cdot a $$After substituting $ d = 54 $ we have:
$$ 54 = 2 \cdot a $$ $$ a = \dfrac{ 54 }{ 2 } $$ $$ a = 27 $$STEP 2: find perimeter $ P $
To find perimeter $ P $ use formula:
$$ P = 6 \cdot a $$After substituting $ a = 27 $ we have:
$$ P = 6 \cdot 27 $$ $$ P = 162 $$This page was created using
