Yesterday I presented a question on perimeter. What is the perimeter of a hexagon if the length of each side is 5? To answer this question correctly you need to know how many sides a hexagon has. This topic of shapes is one topic I present in my book entitled, The ASVAB Tutor’s Mathematics Knowledge Study Guide. A hexagon has 6 sides. To find the perimeter of a shape, add up the sides of the shape. Since a hexagon has 6 sides and each side has a length of 5, you can find the perimeter by multiplying 6 by 5. 6 x 5 = 30.
The perimeter is 30.
Did you know how to solve this problem?
