    I assume the solid is a "regular hexagonal prism", by which it means that the cross section is a regular hexagon with all sides and angles equal.

    Also, the exact apothem is 9.5262 ... but we will adopt the given value of 9.5.

    First lateral surface area

    A1=6*side length*height=6*11*20=1320 units

    Then the end areas

    A2=2 faces * 6 triangles/face * [base * height (apothem) / 2]

    =2*6*11*9.5/2

    =627 units

    Total area=1320+627=1947 units
