Hexagon shape: In geometry

In geometry , a hexagon (from Greek ἕξ, hex , meaning "six", and γωνία, gonía, meaning "corner, angle") is a six-sided polygon. [1] The total of the internal angles of any simple (non-self-intersecting) hexagon is 720°. A hexagon can be defined as a six-sided polygon. Learn about different types of hexagon , properties, formulas for perimeter, the sum of interior angles, and more. Learn what a hexagon is, its types, and how to calculate its perimeter and area using formulas. See examples of hexagons in real life and geometry. A hexagon has six sides – They are two-dimensional closed figures, and they can be oddly shaped , so long as their sides add up to six. There are different kinds of hexagons – Regular hexagons have equal sides and equal angles, while irregular hexagons can bend the rules a little. The hexagon shape is popular in nature – Beehives, insect eyes and more feature hexagons because of their ability to fit together seamlessly.
