The correct option is A 2AO
AB+AC+AD+AE+AF AS ABCDEF is a regular hexagon CDAF=|CD|=|AF|




From triangle law of addition AC+CD=ADAC+AF=ADAB+(AC+AF)+AD+AEAB+AD+AD+AE2AD+AB+AE



Also, |AB|=|ED|AB||EDAB+AE=ED+AE=AD2AD+AD=3AD0 is the center and also midpoint of ADOA=0DAD=2AO3AD=6AO Hence, (D) is the correct option
