Question 10

Given a lattice of regular hexagons. A bug crawls from vertex $A$ to vertex $B$ along edges of the hexagons, taking the shortest possible path (or one of them). Prove that it travels a distance at least $AB/2$ in one direction. If it travels exactly $AB/2$ in one direction, how many edges does it traverse?
