Earlier in the week we all used Geogebra to create a lot of different hexagons. Here are a few of them:
We discussed how to describe their features.
Some of the features we mentioned are:
- pairs of edges which are parallel
- edges which are the same length
and at the corners:
- right angles
- acute ("sharp") angles
- obtuse ("blunt") angles
- symmetry
Then we made some more hexagons out of geostrips:
Here they are:
But wait...
This one isn't a hexagon! |
And is this a hexagon??! |
I loved it, because we could make different shapes with an irregular Hexagon!
