| Let’s draw six segments from the center of this hexagon to the vertices of this hexagon.
Then we get six identical equilateral triangles, of which a hexagon is added, and the area of this hexagon will be equal to the sum of the areas of six equilateral triangles.
Let’s find the area of one such regular triangle.
Since the length of the side of such a regular is equal to the length of the side of the hexagon and is 2 meters, the area of the triangle is 2 * 2 * sin (60 °) / 2 = 2 * sin (60 °) = 2 * √3 / 2 = √3 m ^ 2.
Therefore, the area of the hexagon is 6√3 m ^ 2.
Answer: 6√3 m ^ 2.
