finding the area of a irregular hexagon with perimeter 36 cm

To find the area of an irregular hexagon, you need more information than just the perimeter. The area of a hexagon can be calculated if you know the length of the sides and the apothem (the line segment from the center of the hexagon to the midpoint of one of its sides), or if you can divide the hexagon into triangles and calculate the area of each one.

However, if you only know the perimeter, you can't directly calculate the area because different hexagons with the same perimeter can have different areas. For example, a regular hexagon (where all sides and angles are equal) with a certain perimeter will have a larger area than an irregular hexagon with the same perimeter.

So, in order to find the area of an irregular hexagon with a perimeter of 36 cm, you would need additional information such as the length of the apothem or the dimensions of the individual triangles that make up the hexagon.
