Identify the probability to the nearest hundredth that a point chosen randomly inside the rectangle is in the regular hexagon.
Area of Hexagon
probability = ––––––––––––––––
Area of Rectangle
Ahexagon = (3)(sqrt(3))(1.82) / 2
= 8.418
Arectangle = (26.2)(13) = 340.6
probability = 8.418 / 340.6
= 0.0247 as a percentage, approx 2.5%
.
