Equilateral with side length is rotated about its center by angle , where , to form . See the figure. The area of hexagon is . What is ?
Solution 1
Let O be circumcenter of the equilateral triangle
Easily get OF =
2(area(OFC) + area (OCE)) =
is invalid given ,
Solution #2
From 's side lengths of 14, we get OF = OC = OE = We let angle FOC = () And therefore angle EOC = 120 - ()
The answer would be 3 * (Area + Area )
Which area = 0.5 *
And area = 0.5 *
Therefore the answer would be 3 * 0.5 * (
Which
So
Therefore
And
Which
can be calculated using addition identity, which gives the answer of
(I would really appreciate if someone can help me fix my code and format)
