a and b form the consecutive sides of a ...

a and b form the consecutive sides of a regular hexagon ABCDEF.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B


`AB=a,BC=b`
`thereforeAC=AB+BC=a+b` . . (i)
`AD=2BC=2b` . . (ii)
(because AD is parallel to BC and twice is length)
`CD=AD-AC=2b-(a+b)=b-a`
`FA=-CD=a-b` . . (iii)
`DE=-AB=-a` . . . (iv)
`EF=-BC=-b` . . (v)
`AE=AD+DE=2b-a` . . .(vi)
`CE=CD+DE=b-a-a=b-2a`. . . (vii).
