First choice interior makes a coffee table in the shape of regular hexagonal prism the top is made of wood the sides of glass and the bottom of metal use the net to find how many cm of glass are needed for the furniture
To calculate the amount of glass needed for the sides of the regular hexagonal prism coffee table, we first need to find the formula for the surface area of a regular hexagonal prism.
The formula for the surface area of a regular hexagonal prism is:
Surface Area = 6 * (side length) * (height) + (side length)² * 3 * √3
Since the coffee table has six sides that are made of glass, we can ignore the bottom and top surfaces. Therefore, we only need to calculate the surface area of the six glass sides.
Given that the coffee table is in the shape of a regular hexagonal prism with a side length of "s" and a height of "h," and we want to find the amount of glass needed, we substitute these values into the formula:
Surface Area (glass) = 6 * s * h
Now, we substitute in the actual measurements of the coffee table. Let's assume the side length is 30cm and the height is 40cm:
Surface Area (glass) = 6 * 30cm * 40cm
Surface Area (glass) = 7200 cm²
Therefore, we would need 7200 cm² of glass for the sides of the regular hexagonal prism coffee table.
