Formulas
Area of a circle: A_circle = π × r^2
Area of a square: A_square = side^2
Area of a regular hexagon: A_hexagon = (3√3/2) × r^2
Packing Density in a hexagonal arrangement: ~0.9069
Theorems
Hexagonal packing is the most efficient circle packing method in a plane
Square packing (rectangular grid) is less efficient compared to hexagonal packing
Suitable Grade Level
Grades 10-12
