Correct Answer: 120


Solution : Given:
The side of a regular hexagon is 5cm.

The perimeter of a given figure(P) = (Total length of the external boundary) + (Total length of the internal boundary)
P = (AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FG + GH + HI + IJ + JK + KL + LM + MN + NO + OP + PQ + QR + RA) + (ST + TU + UV + VW + WX + XS)
P = (5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5) + (5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5)
P = 90 + 30
P = 120

Therefore, 120 is the perimeter of the given figure. Hence, the third option is correct.
