Study Notes
Hexagon Basics
- A regular hexagon is a polygon with six sides of equal length, where all internal angles are equal and all vertices lie on a circle.
Angles in a Hexagon
- The sum of all angles in a regular hexagon is 720 degrees.
- Each internal angle in a regular hexagon measures 120 degrees.
Area of a Hexagon
- The area of a regular hexagon can be calculated using the formula: (3 * sqrt(3) * a^2) / 2, where 'a' is the side length.
Types of Hexagons
- A concave hexagon has an outward curved design and all interior angles less than 180 degrees.
- A complex hexagon has at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees.
Hexagon Properties
- The perimeter of a regular hexagon with side length 'a' is 6a.
- The term 'hexagon' means six-angled.
Regular Hexagon
- A regular hexagon is a hexagon with equal side lengths and equal internal angles.
