Divide the hexagon into 6 equal streak triangles which would have side length equal to the radius of the circle.
the area of an equal lateral triangle = sqrt(3)/4 x radius^2
the area of the hexagon would be 6 x sqrt(3)/4 x radius^2
Area = 6 x sqrt(3)/4 x 8^2 = 166.2768 square feet
rounded to the nearest whole foot = 166 square feet.
