Hexagon partitioned into six equilateral triangles. Like squares and equilateral triangles, regular hexagons fit together without any gaps to "tile the plane" (three hexagons meeting at every vertex), and so are useful for constructing tessellations. The cells of a beehive honeycomb are hexagonal for this reason and because the shape makes efficient use of space and building materials. The Voronoi diagram of a regular triangular lattice is the honeycomb tessellation of hexagons. It is not usually considered a triambus, although it is equilateral. The maximal diameter (which corresponds to the long diagonal of the hexagon), "D", is twice the maximal radius
Corresponding sides and corresponding angles example if in a polygon with the side sequence "abcde" and another with the corresponding side sequence "vwxyz" we have vertex angle "A" appearing between sides "a" and "b" then its corresponding vertex angle "V" must appear between sides "v" and "w". Corresponding sides and corresponding angles In geometry, the tests for congruence and similarity involve comparing corresponding sides and corresponding angles of polygons. In these tests, each side and each angle in one polygon is paired with a side or angle in the second polygon, taking care to preserve the order of adjacency. For example, if one polygon has
