5.7735026918962... The formula for the area of a hexagon is A=.5ap, or

A=(1/2)ap, where A=area, a=apothem, and p=perimeter. This means that, because the area is 100, 100=.5ap, so 200=ap. Because in a regular hexagon the apothem is equal to the side length, what we are really saying here is that 200=6a2. Therefore, 33.333=a2, or a= about 5.77. This is the side length.

What is the area of a regular hexagon with a side length of 2 centimeter and an apothem length of 10.4 centimeters?

Such a hexagon is impossible. A regular hexagon with sides of 2 cm can have an apothem of sqrt(3) cm = approx 1.73.It seems you got your question garbled. A regular hexagon, with sides of 2 cm, has an area of 10.4 sq cm. If you used your measurement units properly, you would have noticed that the 10.4 was associated with square units and it had to refer to an area, not a length.
