An equilateral triangle of side 6 cm has its corners cut off to form a regular hexagon. Area (in cm2) of this regular hexagon will be
-
- 3√3
- 3√6
- 6√3
-
5√3 2
- 3√3
Correct Option: C
Tricky approach
| Side of the regular hexagon = | × 6 = 2cm | |
| 3 |
| ∴ Area of the hexagon = | a² | |
| 2 |
| ∴ Area of the hexagon = | × 2 × 2 = 6√3 sq. cm. | |
