उत्तर
Given, a polygon has n sides, then number of diagonals is `1/2(n^2 - 3n)`.
In hexagon, there are six sides
Therefore for calculating number of diagonals in hexagon, put n = 6 in the above formula
∴ Number of diagonals = `1/2[n^2 - 3n]`
= `1/2(6^2 - 3 xx 6)`
= `1/2(6 xx 6 - 3 xx 6)`
= `1/2(36 - 18)`
= `1/2(18)`
= 9
Hence, a hexagon has 9 diagonals.
