Answer:
1,496.49 cm squared
Step-by-step explanation:
The regular figure below is a hexagon.
The formula for the area of a regular hexagon is [tex]A = \frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} a^2[/tex]. Here a = 24. Substitute and simplify for the area.
[tex]A = \frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} a^2\\A = \frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} 24^2\\A = \frac{3\sqrt{3} }{2} * 576\\A = 1496.49[/tex]
