Area of a circle inscribe a hexagon. Cut the hexagon into six triangles by splitting it from the center. Two opposite triangles both touch two common diameters; slide them along one so the radial edges are adjacent. They now form a parallelogram, with the hexagon sides making two opposite edges, one of which is the base, "s". Two radial edges form slanted sides, and the height, "h" is equal to its apothem (as in the Archimedes proof). In fact, we can assemble all the triangles into one big parallelogram by putting successive pairs next to each other. The same is true if we increase
Hexagon (comedy show) selected each year. Recent recipients have included Sarah's Circle, the ALS Association, Hospice Caring, and the Wounded Warrior Project. Hexagon is supported by the affiliated Friends of Hexagon. As of 2014, Hexagon had raised over $3.5 million for charity. Hexagon has received recognition for its work in the Washington community. In 1987, President Ronald Reagan presented Hexagon with the President's Volunteer Action Award for service.
