Answer:

Area = 2127.1 cm^2 (to the tenth)

Explanation:

We may be missing the length of a side at the top of the picture.

However, we are given "a", so the sides of a regular hexagon can be calculated.

The side of a regular hexagon given "a" is

s = 2a/sqrt(3) = 28.61

Perimeter of hexagon

= 6s

Area of hexagon

= a*perimeter/2

= a*6s/2

= 3as

= 3a*2a/sqrt(3)

=2sqrt(3)a^2

= 2*sqrt(3)*24.78^2

= 2127.1 cm^2 (to the tenth)
