The battle largely depends on what spells Hermione goes for.
If she goes for The Disarming Spell in order to remove Annabeth's weapons, it would be easily dodgeable for Annabeth and perhaps enough to close the distance.
Meanwhile, if Hermione goes for a spell that doesn't need to travel in space, Annabeth would in trouble. However, Annabeth's invisibility caps would add in an extra factor as true invisibility in Harry Potter isn't common.
Though, if basic knowledge means Hermione knows about Annabeth's superior physicality or her cap, I would side with her winning more often then not.

She knows Annabeth's superior physicality but not her cap.

Thanks for answering.
Then I would say Annabeth probably takes it more often than not. Considering how rare actual invisibility is in HP, Hermiones first thought wouldn't be to use a spell to reveal Annabeth's presence.

It would presumably be to Apparate away then.

Kindly specify the 'arena' size.
One room?
Whole building but inside?
Whole building including roof?

Right so-
1. That museum covers 13,600 square meters
2. And it has 100 different halls
There is a LOT of available room to Apparate away without leaving the museum. And no good reason whatsoever to stand still and do nothing when your opponent vanishes.
Granted I've no idea why Hermione is going to see someone 15 meters away put on a hat, disappear, and not immediately think, "Huh, probably turned her invisible."
This is not an entirely new idea to her.

...why wouldn't she? Hermione herself is personally friends with a guy who owns an invisibility cloak with the thing being a plot point multiple times in the series.
So it's rare in a sense of 'special magic artifact/item is rare in-universe - except for the protagonists keep getting their hands on it'.

Not even just the protags- we know the Order of the Phoenix used them as well.

My statement earlier assumes that Annabeth would start with the hat on, in which case Hermione would probably just assume she isn't right in front of her.
In such a situation I don't see why she would Apparate elsewhere, since it's not particularly useful.

Most invisibility cloaks work like Predator cloaking rather than actual invisibility though. They're disillusionment charmed or made from magical beasts with transparent properties.

I would agree that's a logical assumption for how Hermione would act if Annabeth started the match invisible.
I just would never assume Annabeth starts a fight invisible anymore than I would assume Harry would.
Though I do think, in the scenario of being hunted, Hermione is more likely to hide and ward before fighting openly. That was the tactic she employed in both Book 5 and Book 7.
