Vector Hexagon (Geometry Vector)

[MayaMaya121]

Hi,
I have this question I'm currently stuck on about vectors, can anyone please help me?
Question:
There is given an equilateral hexagon ABCDEF (no drawing given and I already know that in an equilateral hexagon there are parallel sides).
prove:
[math]\overrightarrow{BC}=\overrightarrow{CD}-\overrightarrow{BA}[/math][math]\overrightarrow{AC}=2\overrightarrow{FE}-\overrightarrow{AF}[/math]

I would start with a diagram. Mark the relevant vectors. Draw additional segments/vectors if needed. Review what vector addition/subtraction/multiplication by a scalar operations look like geometrically.

I don't think that's true:



Are you sure it said "equilateral" and not "regular"? Equilateral only means the sides are the same length.

Oh I mean that also the angles are equal but I solved it. Thanks anyway.
