About 9inches long
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a hexagon = 3√3/2 a²
a is the length of each side
Given
Area of the hexagon = 200in²
Substitute
200 = 3√3/2 a²
200×2 = 3√3 a²
400 = 3√3a²
a² = 400/3√3
a² = 400/5.196
a² = 76.982
a = √76.982
a = 8.774
Hence the length of each side is about 9inches long (to nearest inches)
