Lemoine hexagon Lemoine hexagon In geometry, the Lemoine hexagon is a cyclic hexagon with vertices given by the six intersections of the edges of a triangle and the three lines that are parallel to the edges that pass through its symmedian point. There are two definitions of the hexagon that differ based on the order in which the vertices are connected. The Lemoine hexagon can be drawn defined in two ways, first as a simple hexagon with vertices at the intersections as defined before. The second is a self-intersecting hexagon with the lines going through the symmedian point as three of the
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.
