Answer:
57.12cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached picture, you will notice that you can fill in the 4 corners of the hexagon with 4 triangles (i.e shaded areas) to form a rectangle.
Area of each shaded corner (triangle) = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 4 x 2.14 = 4.28 cm²
Area of 4 shaded corners = 4 x 4.28 = 17.12cm²
Area of rectangle = 9.28 x 8 = 74.24 cm²
Area of hexagon
= Area of rectangle - Area of 4 shaded corners
= 74.24 - 17.12
= 57.12cm²
