Equations

  • The area of a regular hexagon with side length l is equal to six times the area of an equilateral triangle with side length l, i.e.:
l2 · 3√32
  • Because the diameter of a hexagon is twice its side length, the area of a hexagon with diameter l is a quarter of this, i.e.:
l2 · 3√38

Segmentation

The hexagon of side 1 may be segmented into:

  • 6× equilateral triangle with side 1
  • rhombus with angles 2×{60°,120°}
