\(\dfrac{4M^2+3M}{8}\) \(=\dfrac{4\times (-8)^2+3\times (-8)}{8}\)
  \(=\dfrac{4\times 64-24}{8}\)
  \(=\dfrac{232}{8}\)
  \(=29\)

  
\(\Rightarrow C\)

This shape is made up of two right-angled triangle and a regular hexagon.
 

The area of a regular hexagon can be estimated using the formula  \(A=2.598S^2\)  where \(S\) is the hexagon's side-length.

Calculate the total area of the shape using this formula.   (3 marks)

\(619.6\ \text{cm}^2\)

Show Worked Solution

\(\text{Area}=2.598S^2\)

\(\text{Using Pythagoras}\)

\(S^2= 10^2+10^2=200\)

\(S=\sqrt{200}\)

\(A=2.598\times (\sqrt {200})^2=519.6\ \text{cm}^2\)

\(\text{Area of Δ}\ =\dfrac{1}{2}bh=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 10=50 \ \text{cm}^2\)

\(\therefore\ \text{Total Area}\ =519.6+50+50=619.6\ \text{cm}^2\)
