Answer:
Apothem:
radius is the same length as the base/length of each side of the hexagon.
r = 8
use pythagorean theorem to calculate the apothem
[tex]4^2+a^2=8^2\\\\16+a^2=64\\\\a^2=48\\\\a= 6.928[/tex]
≈ 6.9
Area
[tex]A = \frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} *a^2\\\\=\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2}(6.928)^2\\\\=124.7[/tex]
