The area of the hexagon is #"23.383 ft"^2"#.

The formula for the area of a regular hexagon is: #A=((3sqrt3*s^2))/2#, where #s# is the length of each side.

Substitute the side length of #"3 ft"# into the equation and solve.

#A=((3sqrt3*(3"ft")^2))/2#

#A=((3sqrt3*9"ft"^2"))/2#

#A="23.383 ft"^2"# rounded to three decimal places
