The side of a regular hexagon (Fig 11.10) is denoted by l. Express the perimeter of the hexagon using l.  A regular hexagon has all its six sides equal in length.)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We will be using the formula for the perimeter of the regular hexagon
We know that the perimeter of a regular hexagon is `6 x `side-length.
Given, length of each side of a hexagon = l units
Hence, the perimeter of the regular hexagon =` 6 xx l`
Therefore, 6l units is the perimeter of the given regular hexagon.
