Question

A dining table is in the form of a regular hexagon. What is the sum of all the interior angles of the table?

Answer 1

We have a regular hexagon and we have to calculate the sum of the interior angles of the table.

To relate the number of sides (n) of a polygon and the sum of the interior angles (S) we have the equation:

`S=(n-2)\cdot180\degree`

In this case, n=6 as an hexagon has 6 sides, so the sum of the interior angles is:

`S_6=(6-2)\cdot180=4\cdot180=720\degree`

Answer: the interior angles of the hexagon will add 720°
