Regular Hexagon
Below, you will find a regular (equilateral and equiangular) hexagon.
✔️ Use the slider (a) to rotate the regular hexagon between 0 and 360 degrees.
✔️ Use the check boxes and sliders (α and β) to explore the line(s) of reflection of the pre-image hexagon.
Specify the line(s) of reflection (symmetry) that will map the pre-image regular hexagon onto itself.
