it's OD + DE
OD is d, and DE is -0.5c
so it's d - 0.5c

.. is it? ;D

ED is half of OC

becasue u r going in the opposite direction!!

the question says it is a regular hexagon. that means that if you divide it into 6 triangles, they will be equilateral triangles and all sides will be equal. try to visualize it ;D

No need to be embarrassed. This fact isn't very obvious and a lot of ppl don't get it.
