paragraph_text: In geometry, a hexagon (from Greek ἕξ hex, ``six ''and γωνία, gonía,`` corner, angle'') is a six sided polygon or 6 - gon. The total of the internal angles of any hexagon is 720 °.

paragraph_text: In elementary geometry, a polygon (/ ˈpɒlɪɡɒn /) is a plane figure that is bounded by a finite chain of straight line segments closing in a loop to form a closed polygonal chain or circuit. These segments are called its edges or sides, and the points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices (singular: vertex) or corners. The interior of the polygon is sometimes called its body. An n - gon is a polygon with n sides; for example, a triangle is a 3 - gon. A polygon is a 2 - dimensional example of the more general polytope in any number of dimensions.

paragraph_text: In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, equilateral triangles are also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60 °. They are regular polygons, and can therefore also be referred to as regular triangles.
