  2. Hexagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagon

    A regular skew hexagon seen as edges (black) of a triangular antiprism, symmetry D 3d, [2 +,6], (2*3), order 12. A skew hexagon is a skew polygon with six vertices and edges but not existing on the same plane. The interior of such a hexagon is not generally defined. A skew zig-zag hexagon has vertices alternating between two parallel planes.

  3. Hexagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_prism

    Alternately it can be seen as the Cartesian product of a regular hexagon and a line segment, and represented by the product {6}×{}. The dual of a hexagonal prism is a hexagonal bipyramid. The symmetry group of a right hexagonal prism is D 6h of order 24. The rotation group is D 6 of order 12.

  4. Polyhex (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhex_(mathematics)

    One example self-tiling with a pentahex. All of the polyhexes with fewer than five hexagons can form at least one regular plane tiling. In addition, the plane tilings of the dihex and straight polyhexes are invariant under 180 degrees rotation or reflection parallel or perpendicular to the long axis of the dihex (order 2 rotational and order 4 reflection symmetry), and the hexagon tiling and ...

  5. Truncated icosahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_icosahedron

    3D model of a truncated icosahedron. In geometry, the truncated icosahedron is a polyhedron that can be constructed by truncating all of the regular icosahedron's vertices. . Intuitively, it may be regarded as footballs (or soccer balls) that are typically patterned with white hexagons and black pentag

  6. Hexagonal tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_tiling

    Hexagonal tiling is the densest way to arrange circles in two dimensions. The honeycomb conjecture states that hexagonal tiling is the best way to divide a surface into regions of equal area with the least total perimeter.

  8. Truncated tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_tetrahedron

    Given the edge length .The surface area of a truncated tetrahedron is the sum of 4 regular hexagons and 4 equilateral triangles' area, and its volume is: [2] =, =.. The dihedral angle of a truncated tetrahedron between triangle-to-hexagon is approximately 109.47°, and that between adjacent hexagonal faces is approximately 70.53°.

  9. Elongated hexagonal bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elongated_hexagonal_bipyramid

    This polyhedron is in the family of elongated bipyramids, of which the first three can be Johnson solids: J 14, J 15, and J 16.The hexagonal form can be constructed by all regular faces but is not a Johnson solid because 6 equilateral triangles would form six co-planar faces (in a regular hexagon).
