Why Are Honeycombs Hexagonal? How Do Bees Build Hexagonal Honeycombs | Now We Know - BYJU'S

Welcome to the first video of the brand new Now-We-know series, in which we will bring to you complex maths and science concepts in the simplest possible ways!
You must have noticed that bees use only hexagons to build their beehives. But why? What is so special about hexagons? Do bees understand geometry? Come, join us today as we enrol in the bee school of maths to unravel the secrets of nature (and polygons)!

Hmm very interesting topic

[@preetikumar3705]

The reason why a regular pentagon cannot be used to create a tessellation is because the measure of one of its interior angles does not divide into 360° evenly. In every tessellation, the points, called vertices, where the corners of the shapes meet each contain 360°.

[@premdhabale7561]

I like your videos aswin sir and other teacher .Understood the concept really well thanks

[@Md_sadiq_Md]

7:27 there is you answer

[@siddhikshasamanta8317]

I love Byju's

[@aaravkumaraaryan]

I am Aarav Kumar Aaryan. Very nice video.

[@deepanjalidas767]

Gained some new knowledge thanks for it 😉. Now I can answer why are honeycombs hexagonal!🥳Some examples of hexagon from nature are nuts, snow flakes, tie knot etc.

[@ALLTAKEGAMER1230]

Wow different diagram sir

[@neetumishra7764]

Very good and knowledge full video

[@rupal8974]

Loved itt

[@renutiwari4848]

I love the fun fact

[@yashygamer349]

Super sir you are showing the meaning of real education

[@siddhikshasamanta8317]

Wow...

[@shivamraj5435]

I have the byjus premium and he is my favorite teacher

[@Kasturibookbound]

Wallah ! Amazing sir I was curious to know about it and I knew it from my favorite platform to learn i.e Byju's

[@jayashreebehura3493]

you're cool 😎😎😎😎 Aswin sir

[@tapaskumarmallik6488]

Byjus is best learning app

[@pranjalpatel25]

One of the best video. Very good effort.

[@mamataparida2619]

I gained some knowledge

[@siddhikshasamanta8317]

👍👍👍👍🎊😊😊😊🎉😀

[@T_GungunTagore]

Wow! That's great information .it was very helpful to know about the fact .BYJUS is my favourite learning platform .and 'Now we know' series is the best☺️
Thankyou very much.

[@MMREDDY117]

Yesssss. It started

[@MMREDDY117]

Love the explanation

[@jevaeswarmusician]

Nice explanation 👌 👍🏻 👏 😀 sir.

First comment......
BTW I'm very much interested on such fact video
I love byjus

[@tiasingh7397]

Thanku sir

Hexagonal shape in daily life it's:
Football
Snake skin
And honeycomb

[@Kasturibookbound]

Q) Hexagonal shapes in daily life
Ans : a)Snake skin
b)Honeycomb
c)Insect like House fly's Eyes

[@mohanmohanta2459]

Can you give a basic video of maths of topics in short every topics' only basic or fundamentals please byju's because mostly everyone need it

[@Saharsha1508]

Nice explanation sir of your by Justin all of the teachers will explain in very easy method and we will understand very fastly and we can write in exams also thank you sir for explaining these for us and love you byju's

[@Misbah-tc8ls]

I think that pentagons don't tessellate because it doesn't end with 0 whilst the others do

[@mamataparida2619]

Thank you Byju's for understanding me and thank you for exploring such type of things that we don't know

[@madhurabodke5573]

Basalt columns and insect eyes also form hexagonal patterns.

[@sanchitadas7585]

First comment

[@alkasinghixb4197]

Explain displacement time graph ?

[@vitthaldhande3154]

I have seen this pattern in the snake scales

[@OMGIsItArt]

Thank you sir for explaining me. I always thought Why are honeycomb hexagonal . Thank you Byju's 😃

[@aaravkumaraaryan]

The design made on the surface of football.⚽⚽

[@aaravkumaraaryan]

Am I correct?
Anyone please reply!

[@shancubing5669]

Yes, this is a fantastic answer as it tesselates and covers the ball easily

[@sohammondal4461]

Sir please make a video on cotyledons

[@waseempasha8765]

First

[@NavinKumar-by7hb]

One example for this question that I found was football

[@rishithm133]

Scales of reptiles

[@ojalgadpale3300]

Nice

[@Balajikarri]

Eye of fly

[@littleboyzz943]

Snake's Body Is Hexagonal .

[@DancewithShreyasi97]

Footpath tilings
Snake skin patterns..

[@Harnoor54]

Wasp combs

[@farhankabir462]

Hexagonal shapes are also found at the shell of a turtle and more interestingly a hexagonal vortex storm is formed in the northpole of Saturn.

[@hemad6294]

Snacks scale

[@study-vlog7]

Why man made things are rectangular

[@padmajarao6717]

football design

[@subhangimaity904]

Fun fact : Honeybees actually build there combs circular but it automatically converts into hexagon to create a stable shape.

[@Ok96-6]

6 triangle🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺🔺=1 hexagon

[@hashimali9229]

But they make only hexagon but why not triangle or square

[@binu.l.g5232]

7:21 Check this part of video

[@ujwalgopalghare4019]

Watch complete video there is answer

[@binu.l.g5232]

Nice doubt, triangle, square and hexagon can tessellate but which one of them has a larger opening , its for the hexagon. So honey bees use hexagon shapes to get more space inside

[@ShivamThakur-zc6qj]

Bcz hexagon is the largest polygon which can tessellate as well as complete 360° in building 3 shapes so they make hexagon to save efforts
