Alright...let's see now:

1. Sorry, I can't do this one right now. I don't have a protractor handy. But if you do, just measure one of the interior angles of a regular hexagon and that'll be the answer.
2. Don't get this one...-.-u
3. The answer is B. Pie*d
4. The answer is actually 50.24in, but rounded it would be A. 50in.
5. The actual answer is 967.12m but I suppose the best approximation would be A. 924m.
6. The answer is 188.4in. or C. 15.7ft.

Hope I helped.

1) the measure of one interior angle of a regular n-gon is
180(n - 2)/n

so, a hexagon has 6 sides.
180(6 - 2)/6
= 180(4)/6
= 30(4)
= 120

2)
40 degrees = (40pi)/180 radians
= (2pi)/9
s = r(theta)
s = (4)(2pi)/9 = 8 pi / 9

3)
circumference is (diameter)(pi)

4)
diameter = 2 * radius = 2(8) = 16
Circumference = (diameter)(pi)
= 16 pi
= 16 (3.14) = 50.24 = 50

5)
Circumference (one trip around)
= (44)(pi)
7 trips around = (7)(44)(pi) = 308 pi
= 967, so I would pick A.

6)
One trip around = 20 pi
3 trips = 60 pi
(I don't see the answer listed. Did you type the problem right?)

180(6-2)/6= 30*4 = 120

40 degrees = (pi/180)*40 radians = theta
Arc = r*theta = 4*40*pi/180 = 160pi/180 = 8pi/9

C = pi*d

C= 2*p*r = 6.28*8 = 50 inches

Distance = 44 * pi *7 = 967.61m so 924m is closest answer.

C= 20pi = 62.83 inches
3 revloutions = 3*62.83 = 188.5 inches
= 188.5/12 = 15.7 feet
