Equilateral Hexagon

An equilateral hexagon is a six-sided polygon where all the sides are of equal length and all the angles are equal. In other words, it is a regular hexagon with all sides and angles congruent.

Properties of an Equilateral Hexagon:

• Number of sides: 6
• Sum of interior angles: 720 degrees
• Each interior angle: 120 degrees
• Each exterior angle: 60 degrees
• Perimeter: 6 times the length of one side

Formulas for Equilateral Hexagon:

• Area: A = (3√3 / 2) * s^2, where s is the length of a side
• Perimeter: P = 6s, where s is the length of a side
