Regular Hexagon
Regular hexagon (a two-dimensional figure) is a polygon with six congruent sides.- Circumcircle is a circle that passes through all the vertices of a two-dimensional figure.
 - Congruent is all sides having the same lengths and angles measure the same.
 - Diagonal is a line from one vertices to another that is non adjacent.
 - Inscribed circle is the largest circle possible that can fit on the inside of a two-dimensional figure.
 - Long diagonal always crosses the center point of the hexagon.
 - Polygon (a two-dimensional figure) is a closed plane figure for which all edges are line segments and not necessarly congruent.
 - Short diagonal does not cross the center point of the hexagon.
 - Exterior angles are 60°.
 - Interior angles are 120°.
 - 9 diagonals
 - 6 edges
 - 6 vertexs
