Solution

Two regular Hexagons of perimeter 30 cm each are joined as shown in the following figure. The perimeter of the new figure is 50 cm.

Explanation:

Given, perimeter of hexagon = 30 cm 

And number of sides in hexagon = 6

∴ Length of one side = `"Perimeter of hexagon"/"Total number of sides"`

= `30/6`

= 5 cm

Now, two hexagons are joined then perimeter = Sum of all sides

= AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FG + GH + HI + IJ + JA

= 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5

= 50 cm
