Hexagon them. Coxeter states that every zonogon (a 2"m"-gon whose opposite sides are parallel and of equal length) can be dissected into "m"("m"-1)/2 parallelograms. In particular this is true for regular polygons with evenly many sides, in which case the parallelograms are all rhombi. This decomposition of a regular hexagon is based on a Petrie polygon projection of a cube, with 3 of 6 square faces. Other parallelogons and projective directions of the cube are dissected within rectangular cuboids. A regular hexagon has Schläfli symbol {6}. A regular hexagon is a part of the regular hexagonal tiling, {6,3}, with 3 hexagonal
Magic hexagon can be called a T-hexagon and it has many more properties than the hexagon of hexagons. As with the above, the rows of triangles run in three directions and there are 24 triangles in a T-hexagon of order 2. In general, a T-hexagon of order "n" has formula_10 triangles. The sum of all these numbers is given by: If we try to construct a magic T-hexagon of side "n", we have to choose "n" to be even, because there are rows so the sum in each row must be For this to be an integer, "n" has to be even.
