  2. Hexagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagon

    A principal diagonal of a hexagon is a diagonal which divides the hexagon into quadrilaterals. In any convex equilateral hexagon (one with all sides equal) with common side a, there exists [11]: p.184, #286.3 a principal diagonal d 1 such that and a principal diagonal d 2 such that

  3. Diagonal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagonal

    The diagonals of a cube with side length 1. AC' (shown in blue) is a space diagonal with length , while AC (shown in red) is a face diagonal and has length .. In geometry, a diagonal is a line segment joining two vertices of a polygon or polyhedron, when those vertices are not on the same edge.

  4. Hexadecagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecagon

    Coxeter states that every zonogon (a 2m-gon whose opposite sides are parallel and of equal length) can be dissected into m(m-1)/2 parallelograms. [ 4 ] In particular this is true for regular polygons with evenly many sides, in which case the parallelograms are all rhombi.

  5. Regular polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_polygon

    The diagonals divide the polygon into 1, 4, 11, 24, ... pieces. [ a ] For a regular n -gon inscribed in a circle of radius 1 {\displaystyle 1} , the product of the distances from a given vertex to all other vertices (including adjacent vertices and vertices connected by a diagonal) equals n .

  6. Euler's quadrilateral theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_quadrilateral_theorem

    Euler's quadrilateral theorem or Euler's law on quadrilaterals, named after Leonhard Euler (1707–1783), describes a relation between the sides of a convex quadrilateral and its diagonals. It is a generalisation of the parallelogram law which in turn can be seen as generalisation of the Pythagorean theorem .

  7. Apothem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apothem

    Apothem of a hexagon Graphs of side, s; apothem, a; and area, A of regular polygons of n sides and circumradius 1, with the base, b of a rectangle with the same area. The green line shows the case n = 6. The apothem (sometimes abbreviated as apo [1]) of a regular polygon is a line

  8. Tangential quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_quadrilateral

    [11] [10]: p.11 One way to see this is as a limiting case of Brianchon's theorem, which states that a hexagon all of whose sides are tangent to a single conic section has three diagonals that meet at a point. From a tangential quadrilateral, one can form a hexagon with two 180° angles, by placing two new vertices at two opposite points of ...

  9. Bicentric quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicentric_quadrilateral

    This formula cannot be used if the quadrilateral is a right kite, since the denominator is zero in that case. If M, N are the midpoints of the diagonals, and E, F are the intersection points of the extensions of opposite sides, then the area of a bicentric quadrilateral is given by
