Question : 23
Total: 57
Construct a regular hexagon of side 5 cm . 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 to5 cm .
(ii) Draw the perpendicular bisectors of sidesAB , BC , CD , DE , EF and FA which intersect A B at V , B C at X , C D at Y, DE at U, EF at W and FA at Z.
(iii) Join the mid points of opposite sides i.e., UV, WX andYZ and the diagonals passing through the centres i.e., AD , BE and CF .
Hence A regular hexagon has six lines of symmetry - UV, WX, YZ, AD, BE, CF.
