Please draw a sketch of the problem and include relevant information.

How is "length" of ring is defined in your class/text-book?

Please show us what you have tried and exactly where you are stuck.

Are you following a text-book?

From where did this worksheet come ?

Can you post an image of the worksheet, like you did in:

What does a hexagonal ring look like? How many sides does it have?

i suppose this is the question...and this is the appropriate answer to it

How did you get 180m??

I had asked the OP in response#2

How are YOU defining the the "Length of the RING"?

 

[tri]

Length of a hexagonal ring could be the edge length, long diagonal, short diagonal, incircle radius, incircle diameter, circumcircle radius (same as edge length), circumcircle diameter (same as long diagonal) or even the perimeter (which has been asked). It is more likely that length in this case means edge length, but it is not confirmed. Even if it is assumed that given length is the edge length and the concerned hexagon is regular, perimeter cannot be 180m.

That is why I had asked the definition from the student's textbook and provide a sketch.

Seeing as the OP hasn't responded yet we will probably never find out.

hey. the answer is wrong as 20*6 is not 180 it is 120m.
We have checked it, so do refer to this answer as the procedure is right and the answer is wrong
