A Correct answer
Explanation

The square's perimeter is 4 x 4.5 = 18 cm. A regular hexagon has six equal sides, so each side is 18/6 = 3 cm.

AI explanation

Using the square perimeter formula, the perimeter is 4 multiplied by 4.5 cm, which equals 18 cm. A regular hexagon has 6 equal sides, so dividing the total perimeter of 18 cm by 6 gives a side length of 3 cm.
