Question

The side of a regular hexagon is denoted by $l$. What do we get on expressing the perimeter of the hexagon using $l$ ?

• A. $2l$
• B. $3l$
• C. $4l$
• D. $6l$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $6l$

A hexagon with all six sides equal in length is called as a regular hexagon.

Given, side of the regular hexagon = $l$

Perimeter is the total sum of lengths of all the bounding sides of a planar object.
$\therefore$, Perimeter of the given regular hexagon = $6\times sidelength$ = $6l$
