This is a hexagon with an apothem  of   5sqrt(3)  cm

 

The area is given by  :  6 * (1/2) (side length)^2  *  sqrt (3)  / 2

 

We can find the side length  as   2 *  5*sqrt(3)  / sqrt(3)  = 2 * 5  = 10 cm

 

So....the area is

 

6* (1/2)  10^2 * sqrt(3)  / 2  =

 

3 * 100 * sqrt(3)  / 2  =

 

150sqrt(3)  cm^2  ≈   259.8 cm^2
