    This site shows you how to derive the formula for the area of a hexagon. A hexagon is a plane figure, so it has no volume.

    Derive formula for area of a hexagon

    If you're talking about a hexagonal prism, just multiply the area of the hexagon by the height of the prism.

    The area of a hexagon is given by where t is the length of a side.
