    We are not given here the number of units of apothem. Suppose we have this as y units. If the radius of the regular hexagon is 2x then, the measure of each side is also 2x. The area of a regular polygon is calclulated through the equation of,

    A = 0.5aP

    where a is apothem and P is perimeter. Substituting,

    A = 0.5 (y) (6) (2x) = 5xy
