So I was watching a video that features astronomer and topologist Cliff Stoll talking about how figures that aren't quadrilaterals can have all their angles equal 90 degrees on different surfaces. For example, on a sphere, you can create a triangle that has all of its angles equal $90^circ$ . On a pseudosphere, you can create a pentagon that has all of its angles equal $90^circ$ . Now, here's my question. Is there a surface where a hexagon with this property is possible?
