Hexagon Hexagon In geometry, a hexagon (from Greek ἕξ "hex", "six" and γωνία, "gonía", "corner, angle") is a six-sided polygon or 6-gon. The total of the internal angles of any simple (non-self-intersecting) hexagon is 720°. A "regular hexagon" has Schläfli symbol {1} and can also be constructed as a truncated equilateral triangle, t{3}, which alternates two types of edges. A regular hexagon is defined as a hexagon that is both equilateral and equiangular. It is bicentric, meaning that it is both cyclic (has a circumscribed circle) and tangential (has an inscribed circle). The common length of the sides equals the radius
Magic hexagon Magic hexagon A magic hexagon of order "n" is an arrangement of numbers in a centered hexagonal pattern with "n" cells on each edge, in such a way that the numbers in each row, in all three directions, sum to the same magic constant "M". A normal magic hexagon contains the consecutive integers from 1 to 3"n" − 3"n" + 1. It turns out that normal magic hexagons exist only for "n" = 1 (which is trivial, as it is composed of only 1 hexagon) and "n" = 3. Moreover, the solution of order 3 is essentially unique. Meng also
