Hexomino
A Hexomino is a geometric shape made up of six connected squares, forming a specific arrangement. It is a type of polyomino, which refers to shapes created by joining squares edge to edge. Hexominoes can be arranged in various configurations, leading to a total of 35 unique shapes when considering rotations and reflections.
Hexominoes are often used in mathematical puzzles and games, similar to their smaller counterparts, the Tromino (three squares) and Tetromino (four squares). They can also be explored in recreational mathematics, helping to develop spatial reasoning and problem-solving skills.
