Answer 2

Answer: the perimeter of the base of the skylight is 2.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a shape or figure is the distance around it. The base of the skylight is a regular hexagon with side length 40 cm. It means that it has 6 sides and all the sides are equal.

Therefore, the the perimeter of the base of the skylight would be

40 × 6 = 240 cm

We would convert from cm to meters.

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore, 240 cm would be

240/100 = 2.4 m
