Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Calculate the sum of the interior angles of a hexagon.
[2 marks]2.
What is the measure of each interior angle in a regular hexagon?
[2 marks]3.
Calculate the measure of each exterior angle in a regular hexagon.
[2 marks]4.
Construct a regular hexagon on the grid with side length 4 units. Label all sides.
[3 marks]5.
A hexagon has interior angles of 125°, 125°, 130°, 125°, 125°, and an unknown angle. Find the measure of the unknown angle.
[3 marks]6.
Calculate the length of the diagonal in a regular hexagon with side length 6 units.
[3 marks]7.
A hexagon has sides of lengths 5, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7 units. Is it regular? Explain your reasoning.
[3 marks]8.
In a real-world scenario, a hexagonal tile has a side length of 3 inches. How many such tiles would be needed to cover a rectangular area measuring 18 inches by 24 inches, assuming perfect tiling without gaps?
[4 marks]9.
Identify the common mistake: A student calculates interior angles of a hexagon as 130° each and concludes the total sum is 780°. Explain the error and correct it.
[3 marks]10.
A hexagon is stretched so that one interior angle increases by 10°, and another decreases by 10°, keeping the total sum of interior angles unchanged. If originally all angles were equal, what are the new angles?
[4 marks]11.
Determine whether a hexagon with sides 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4 units is necessarily convex. Justify your answer.
