5 diagonals

* * * * *

That is not correct since two of these would be lines joining the vertex to adjacent vertices (one on either side). These are sides of the polygon, not diagonals. The number of diagonals from any vertex of a polygon with n sides is n-3.

How many diagonals can be drawn from any one vertex of a hexagon?

four * * * * * The correct answer is 3. You cannot have a diagonal from a vertex to itself, nor to either of the two adjacent vertices (these would form sides of the polygon). So 3 out of the other vertices cannot be used. In a hexagon, that leaves 3 that can be used. Hence the answer.


How many diagonals can you drawn from one vertex in a 35 sided polygon?

A diagonal of a polygon is a segment drawn from one vertex to another non-adjacent vertex in a polygon. This leaves 32 diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex in a 35 sided polygon.


How many diagonals can be drawn to divide hexagon in half?

Just one diagonal will divide a hexagon into two halves

What is the diagonal of 16-gon from one vertex?

If you mean "How many diagonals can be drawn from one vertex of a figure with 16 sides", the formula is n-3, where "n" being the number of sides of the figure. So 16-3 = 13 diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex.


How many diagonals could be drawn from one vertex of a 15-gon?

13 The correct answer is 12. From any one vertex, you can draw a diagonal to all but 3 vertices: the vertex itself and the next vertex on either side of your vertex (these would be sides of your shape, not diagonals).


Since a regular hexagon contains no circles it can be drawn using only a straightedge?

Where are the lines of symmetry for a pentagon?

In a regular pentagon, the lines of symmetry are drawn from each vertex to the midpoint of the edge directly opposite the vertex, so there are five in all.


How many diagonals can be drawn from a vertex of an n-gon?

An n-gon has n(n-3)/2 total diagonals. You can draw n-3 diagonals from each vertex ( n>3) ( A triangle doesn't really have a diagonal) An alternative way of seeing this: from any vertex, you can draw a diagonal to any other vertex except itself and the immediate neighbour on either side (the latter would be sides of the n-gon). This gives n-3 diagonals.


How many triangle fit in a hexagon?

That would depend on which hexagon and what triangles. A small hexagon might not have room for any large triangles. A large hexagon will have room fro many small triangles.If you have a regular hexagon and connect the vertices you will have drawn six equilateral triangles
