A rope.Measure 60cm was divided into 2 groups . 1 was used to make a rectangle of length 12cm and breadth 6cm. And the other was used to make a hexagon . What is the size of the hexagon in each side

Respuesta :

Answer:

4cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to know the perimeter of the rectangle so as to know the length used to make the rectangle. This is 2(l + b)

P = 2(12 + 6) = 2(18) = 36cm

The length remaining to make the hexagon would be 60 - 36 = 24cm

Now since the hexagon is regular, the length of each side would be 24/6 = 4cm

Note: hexagon is a polygon with 6 sides
