Question
Find the long diagonal $ d $ of a hexagon if circumcircle radius $R = 12\, \text{cm}$.
Answer
$24\, \text{cm}$
Explanation
STEP 1:
The side of the hexagon is equal the radius of the circumcircle. $$ a = 12 $$
STEP 2: find diagonal $ d $
To find diagonal $ d $ use formula:
$$ d = 2 \cdot a $$After substituting $a = 12\, \text{cm}$ we have:
$$ d = 2 \cdot 12\, \text{cm} $$ $$ d = 24\, \text{cm} $$This page was created using
