Question 3.
Draw a rough sketch of a regular hexagon. Connecting any three of its vertices, draw a triangle. Identify the type of the triangle you have drawn.
Answer:
ABCDEF is a regular hexagon and triangle,F thus formed by joining ACF is an isosceles triangle.
RBSE Solutions for Class 6 Maths Chapter 5 Understanding Elementary Shapes Ex 5.8 7
ABCDEF is a regular hexagon.
Joining its alternate vertices A, C, E, we get ΔACE is a regular triangle. Thus, the triangle so formed is an equilateral triangle.

Question 4.
Draw a rough sketch of a regular octagon (Use squared paper if you wish). Draw a rectangle by joining exactly four of the vertices of the octagon.
Answer:
