A plane figure (2-dimensional) of 6 sides. Remember from Latin the prefix of the word indicates the number of sides. 'Poly = Many Tri = 3 Tetra/Quad = 4 Penta = 5 Hexa = 6 Hepta = 7 Octa = 8 Nona = 9 Deca = 10 The suffix 'gon' indicates that it is a plane 2- dimensional figure.
A hexagon is any two-dimensional polygon with six sides and six vertices. If it is a regular hexagon, then opposite sides are parallel and each of the angles equals 120 degrees. The six interior angles then add up to 720 degrees
A pentagonal pyramid (5 sides and 1 base) has 6 faces, 6 vertices, and 10 edges (5 between the sides and 5 with the base).
Any figure with 6 sides is a Hexagon. If all sides of the figure are of the same length, and all interior angles are 120° then you have a regular hexagon.
It is a figure that is the same as another figure in the plane. A square is the same plane figure as another square, but a cube is same the same plane figure even tho it is made up of 6 squares.
