Question

Find the lateral area of the regular prism with height h, if the base of the prism is: Regular hexagon with the side 3.5 cm and h = 4 cm

Answer 1

Ok turns out this question is actually very simple and you are overthinking it!

Just only calculate all it's sides but not its base.

It would be

A=bh*6

A=3.5*4*6

A=84

HOPE IT HELPS!!!!

Answer 2

For this case we have that the lateral area of the prism is given by the following expression:
A = (6) * (L) * (h)
Where,
L: hexagon side
h: prism height
Substituting the values we have:
A = (6) * (3.5) * (4)
A = 84 cm ^ 2
Answer:
The lateral area of the regular prism is:
A = 84 cm ^ 2
