Each side of a regular hexagon is 9.6 cm. Find its perimeter. 

Options

A. 57.6 sq. cm
B. 1.6 sq. cm
C. 1.6 cm
D. 57.6 cm

Answer

To find the perimeter of a regular hexagon where each side measures 9.6 cm, follow these steps:

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Understand the properties of a regular hexagon**:
A regular hexagon has six equal sides.

2. **Identify the length of one side**:
The length of each side is given as 9.6 cm.

3. **Use the formula for the perimeter of a hexagon**:
The formula for the perimeter (P) of a regular hexagon is:
\[ P = 6 \times \text{side length} \]

4. **Substitute the value of the side length into the formula**:
\[ P = 6 \times 9.6 \, \text{cm} \]

5. **Calculate the perimeter**:
\[ P = 57.6 \, \text{cm} \]

6. **Conclusion**:
The perimeter of the regular hexagon is 57.6 cm.
