A hexagon is a six-sided polygon, characterized by its six edges and six vertices. The internal angles of a regular hexagon, where all sides and angles are equal, measure 120 degrees each. Hexagons can be found in various natural and man-made structures, such as honeycombs and tiles.
In geometry, hexagons can be classified into regular and irregular types. A regular hexagon has equal sides and angles, while an irregular hexagon has sides and angles of different lengths and measures. The hexagonal shape is often used in design and architecture due to its efficient use of space.
