Question
Find the incircle radius $ r $ of a hexagon if side $a = 40\, \text{cm}$.
Answer
$20 \sqrt{ 3 }\, \text{cm}$
Explanation
To find incircle radius $ r $ use formula:
$$ r = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$After substituting $a = 40\, \text{cm}$ we have:
$$ r = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot 40\, \text{cm} }{ 2 } $$$$ r = \dfrac{ 40 \sqrt{ 3 }\, \text{cm} }{ 2 } $$ $$ r = 20 \sqrt{ 3 }\, \text{cm} $$This page was created using
