Early algorithms for Boolean operations on polygons were based on the use of bitmaps.Using bitmaps in modeling polygon shapes has many drawbacks. One of the drawbacks is that the memory usage can be very large, since the resolution of polygons is proportional to the number of bits used to represent polygons.
A pentagon is a five-sided polygon. A regular pentagon has 5 equal edges and 5 equal angles. In geometry, a polygon is traditionally a plane figure that is bounded by a finite chain of straight line segments closing in a loop to form a closed chain.
There are 16 subgroups. There are 8 up to isomorphism: itself (D 6), 2 dihedral: (D 3, D 2), 4 cyclic: (Z 6, Z 3, Z 2, Z 1) and the trivial (e) These symmetries express nine distinct symmetries of a regular hexagon. John Conway labels these by a letter and group order. [4] r12 is full symmetry, and a1 is no symmetry.

For example, the 2nd hexagonal number is 2×3 = 6; the 4th is 4×7 = 28; the 16th is 16×31 = 496; and the 64th is 64×127 = 8128. The largest number that cannot be written as a sum of at most four hexagonal numbers is 130. Adrien-Marie Legendre proved in 1830 that any integer greater than 1791 can be expressed in this way.
For class 3 forms, the whirl operator, w, generates GP(2,1), with a T multiplier of 7. A clockwise and counterclockwise whirl generator, w w = wrw generates GP (7,0) in class 1. In general, a whirl can transform a GP( a , b ) into GP( a + 3 b ,2 ab ) for a > b and the same chiral direction.
Hendecagram – {11/2}, {11/3}, {11/4} and {11/5} Dodecagram – {12/5} m and n must be coprime, or the figure will degenerate. The degenerate regular stars of up to 12 sides are: Tetragon – {4/2} Hexagons – {6/2}, {6/3} Octagons – {8/2}, {8/4} Enneagon – {9/3} Decagons – {10/2}, {10/4}, and {10/5} Dodecagons – {12/2}, {12/3}, {12/4 ...
