EXAMPLE 2 Classify polygons Classify the polygon by the number of sides. Tell whether the polygon is equilateral, equiangular, or regular. Explain your reasoning. a. b. SOLUTION a. The polygon has 6 sides. It is equilateral and equiangular, so it is a regular hexagon. b. The polygon has 4 sides, so it is a quadrilateral. It is not equilateral or equiangular, so it is not regular.

EXAMPLE 2 Classify polygons Classify the polygon by the number of sides. Tell whether the polygon is equilateral, equiangular, or regular. Explain your reasoning. c. SOLUTION c. The polygon has 12 sides, so it is a dodecagon. The sides are congruent, so it is equilateral. The polygon is not convex, so it is not regular.

EXAMPLE 3 Find side lengths ALGEBRA A table is shaped like a regular hexagon. The expressions shown represent side lengths of the hexagonal table. Find the length of a side. SOLUTION First, write and solve an equation to find the value of x. Use the fact that the sides of a regular hexagon are congruent. 3 x + 6 = 4 x – 2 Write equation. 6 = x– 2 Subtract 3 x from each side. 8 = x Add 2 to each side.
