Winter Hexagon of one another by following various lines traced through various stars in Orion. The stars in the hexagon are parts of six constellations. Counter-clockwise around the hexagon, starting with Rigel, these are Orion, Taurus, Auriga, Gemini, Canis Minor, and Canis Major. Winter Hexagon The Winter Hexagon or Winter Circle/Oval is an asterism appearing to be in the form of a hexagon with vertices at Rigel, Aldebaran, Capella, Pollux, Procyon, and Sirius. It is mostly upon the Northern Hemisphere's celestial sphere. On most locations on Earth (except the South Island of New Zealand and the south of Chile and Argentina and
Pappus's hexagon theorem collinear. That is, the points of intersection of the pairs of opposite sides of the hexagon ADEGBZ are collinear. Lemmas XV and XVII are that, if the point M is determined as the intersection of HK and BG, then the points A, M, and D are collinear. That is, the points of intersection of the pairs of opposite sides of the hexagon BEKHZG are collinear. In addition to the above characterizations of Pappus's theorem and its dual, the following are equivalent statements: Pappus's hexagon theorem In mathematics, Pappus's hexagon theorem (attributed to Pappus of Alexandria) states that given one set
