A cell-phone carrier is allocated 642 radio frequencies to operate in a city with a hexagon pattern cell design. 42 of the frequencies is reserved for control channel and each phone call uses 2 frequencies per call (1 for transmitting and 1 for receiving). In an advance mobile phone service, use the frequencies distribution to answer the following question. if the distance between centers of adjacent cells is 2km and the minimum distance between centers of cells with the same cochannel is 7km. Calculate the area of each cell.
