Answer ( 1 )
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
