What is the difference between a hexagon and a regular hexagon?

∙ 11y ago
A hexagon is any six-sided plane (two-dimensional) figure. A regular or equilateral hexagon is such a figure with all sides equal in length and all angles equal. The two conditions are independent:
- You can "squash" a regular hexagon to change the angles without changing the sides.
- You can also "stretch" or "squeeze" a regular hexagon to make one pair of sides at a time longer or shorter than the others.

What is the difference of regular and irregular shapes?
The difference between an irregular and regular is that a regular shape is the normal form of a hexagon or pentagon etc. A regular hexagon would have six sides all the same length and all the angles would be the same. An irregular shape is a shape in a different form of the normal form. Example, A irregular hexagon would still have six sides but the lengths may be different and the angles also may be different.
