Magic hexagram
(Redirected from Magic Hexagram)
A magic hexagram of order 2 is an arrangement of numbers in a hexagram with triangular cells with 2 cells on each edge, in such a way that the numbers in each row, in all three directions, sum to the same magic constant M.

[edit]Magic star hexagram or 6-pointed magic star is a star polygon with Schläfli symbol {6/2} in which numbers are placed at each of the six vertices and six intersections, such that the four numbers on each line sum to the same magic constant.
