A hexagon is a polygon with six sides and six angles. The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is always 720 degrees.
Each side of a hexagon is of equal length, and each angle measures 120 degrees in a regular hexagon.
A regular hexagon has six lines of symmetry, meaning it can be divided into six equal parts by drawing lines from each vertex to the opposite vertex.
Some real-life examples of hexagons include the cells of a honeycomb, the shape of a stop sign, and the structure of some snowflakes.
In geometry, hexagons are used to create tessellations, which are a pattern of shapes that fit perfectly together without any gaps.
