SSC CGL - 21 Sep 2025 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q66

A hexagon is drawn inside a circle with a radius of 21 cm. Determine the approximate area of the hexagon.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 1145 cm2.

In a circle, a regular hexagon has a side = radius

So, side = 21

Area of hexagon = 3√323√3\over2 × side2

⇒ 3√323√3\over2× 212 = 3√323√3\over2 × 441

⇒ 661.5√3 = 661.5 × 1.732 = 1145 cm2
