In geometry, the hexagonal tiling is a regular tiling of the Euclidean plane. It has Schläfli symbol of {6,3} or t{3,6} (as a truncated triangular tiling). Conway calls it a hextille. The internal angle of the hexagon is 120 degrees so three hexagons at a point make a full 360 degrees. It is one of three regular tilings of the plane. The other two are the triangular tiling and the square tiling. This hexagonal pattern exists in nature in a beehive's honeycomb, and various crystal lattices.
