Construct a regular hexagon of side . Hence construct all its lines of symmetry and name them.
Solution:
Steps of Construction : (i) Using the given data, construct the regular hexagon ABCDEF with each side equal to . (ii) Draw the perpendicular bisectors of sides and which intersect at at at Y, DE at U, EF at W and FA at Z. (iii) Join the mid points of opposite sides i.e., UV, WX and and the diagonals passing through the centres i.e., , and . Hence A regular hexagon has six lines of symmetry - UV, WX, YZ, AD, BE, CF.
