A
Fluency & Practice
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Calculate the sum of interior angles of a regular hexagon.
[2 marks]2.
If each interior angle of a regular hexagon is 120°, verify this by calculation.
[2 marks]3.
Construct a regular hexagon with side length 5 cm. What is the perimeter?
[2 marks]4.
Calculate the measure of each exterior angle of a regular hexagon.
[2 marks]B
Problem Solving & Reasoning
Answer all questions with detailed reasoning.
1.
A hexagon has three interior angles measuring 120°, 130°, and 110°. The remaining three angles are equal. Find the measure of each of the remaining angles.
[3 marks]2.
Explain why all interior angles of a regular hexagon are equal and find their measure.
[4 marks]3.
A design uses a regular hexagon with side length 10 cm. If the design is scaled so the side length doubles, what will be the new perimeter?
[2 marks]4.
Identify and correct the mistake in this statement: "All hexagons are regular and have angles of 120°."
[3 marks]C
Real-world Applications
Answer all questions based on the scenario.
1.
A hexagonal tile has side length 20 cm. How much materials are needed to cover a floor of 10 tiles? Calculate the total perimeter of all tiles combined.
[3 marks]2.
A bee hive is built with hexagonal cells. If each cell has a side length of 1 cm, how many sides are there in total if the hive has 50 cells, assuming each cell shares sides with neighboring cells to minimize total perimeter?
[4 marks]D
Challenge & Extension
Answer the challenging questions. Show all working clearly.
1.
Design a irregular hexagon with sides of lengths 4 cm, 6 cm, 4 cm, 6 cm, 4 cm, and 6 cm. Calculate the total sum of its interior angles.
[4 marks]2.
Prove that the sum of the exterior angles of any hexagon is 360° using a reasoning process.
[4 marks]E
Mixed Review
Answer a variety of questions to review key concepts.
1.
Draw a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle of radius 6 cm. Label all sides and angles.
[4 marks]2.
Determine whether the following statement is true or false: 'All irregular hexagons have interior angles less than 180°.'
