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.
