To solve the problem of determining the vectors for the sides of a regular hexagon given vectors \( \mathbf{a} \) and \( \mathbf{b} \) for adjacent sides \( AB \) and \( BC \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Geometry of the Hexagon A regular hexagon has six sides, and the vectors for these sides can be derived from the given vectors \( \mathbf{a} \) (for side \( AB \)) and \( \mathbf{b} \) (for side \( BC \)). The sides of the hexagon are connected in a cyclic manner. ### Step 2: Identify the Vectors for Each Side 1. **Vector \( \mathbf{a} \)**: This is the vector for side \( AB \). 2. **Vector \( \mathbf{b} \)**: This is the vector for side \( BC \). ...
