What sides are parallel in a hexagon?

In a regular hexagon, all sides are parallel to the one across from it. In other hexagons, this need not be the case.

How do you find across corner of the hexagonal nut by only using Across flat thickness?

2*((flat dist/2)/0.866) Or in words: Take half the flat distance, divide that by 0.866, multiply the result by 2. You can derive this yourself by drawing a hexagon and drawing in the lines you want through the exact center of the hexagon. You will discover this makes two right triangles, the hypotenuses of which are the "across corners", and the "long sides" of which are the "across flats". By inspection, there are 12 of these triangles, meaning the small angle of each is 30 degrees. The cosine of 30 degrees is 0.866, which is the ratio of each triangle's "long side" to their hypotenuse. Do the math and you will come up with the formula above. Cheers!

Whait is the distance across Europe and across Russia combined?

The distance across Europe is approximately 6,800 kilometers, and the distance across Russia from its western border to its eastern border is approximately 10,000 kilometers. Therefore, the combined distance across both Europe and Russia would be around 16,800 kilometers.

Why is a baseball home plate 17 inches across?

Originally home plate was a 12 inch by 12 inch square. It was rotated 45 degs. so that it fitted the playing field. The pitchers would argue that they would not get the called strike when the ball went over the corners of the plate. On March 9th 1900 the owners in the National League changed the shape of home plate to five sides in order to get rid of the corners. They figured this would eleminate the arguements on called strikes. Before changing the shape of the plate, the distance across the corners was 16.97 inches. After making the change it appears that they rounded off the distance to make the width of the plate an even 17 inches.


How many trapezoids are needed to make a hexagon?

Minimally, two (2) trapezoids are necessary to create a hexagon. (This solution comes from drawing a line straight across the center of the hexagon.) Most numbers (if not all) greater than two are also feasible, but with more finagling.
