    Answer: (B)
    Explanation: The area of the
    hexagon will be equal to six
    equilateral triangles with each side
    equal to the radius of circle.
    Area of given hexagon = Area of 6
    equilateral triangles

    = 6 X (√3/4) X (side)2
    = 6 X (√3/4) X (28)2
    = 1999.2 cm2

    (Taking √3 = 1.7)
    Area of circle = πr2
    = π × 282
    = 2464 cm2
    So, area of designed portion = 2464
    – 1999.2 = 464.8 cm2
    Cost of making design = 464.8 ×
    0.35
    = Rs. 162.68
