To determine

To prove:Triangle HOJ is regular

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

RO is perpendicular to plane

O, M and K are coplanar

GHJKMP is a regular hexagon

HO bisects angle GHJ

RH is congruent to RJ

Formula used:

Regular hexagon has all sides and angles equal

Proof :

In triangles ROJ and ROH , we have

RH is congruent to RJ …… given

Therefore, RH = RJ ....................... by definition of congruency

HO bisects angle GHJ and OJ bisects angle KJH ....................... Given

RO is common arm …… by definition

Thus, triangles ROJ and ROH are congruent…....................... SSS , criteria

Thus, OH = OJ = HJ

Therefore, triangle HOJ is regular

Hence proved
