  2. List of polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polygons

    Individual polygons are named (and sometimes classified) according to the number of sides, combining a Greek-derived numerical prefix with the suffix -gon, e.g. pentagon, dodecagon. The triangle , quadrilateral and nonagon are exceptions, although the regular forms trigon , tetragon , and enneagon are sometimes encountered as well.

  3. Polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon

    A simple polygon is the boundary of a region of the plane that is called a solid polygon. The interior of a solid polygon is its body, also known as a polygonal region or polygonal area. In contexts where one is concerned only with simple and solid polygons, a polygon may refer only to a simple polygon or to a solid polygon.

  4. Dodecagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecagon

    The regular dodecagon is the Petrie polygon for many higher-dimensional polytopes, seen as orthogonal projections in Coxeter planes. Examples in 4 dimensions are the 24-cell, snub 24-cell, 6-6 duoprism, 6-6 duopyramid. In 6 dimensions 6-cube, 6-orthoplex, 2 21, 1 22. It is also the Petrie polygon for the grand 120-cell and great stellated 120-cell.

  5. Regular polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_polygon

    Regular convex and star polygons with 3 to 12 vertices labelled with their Schläfli symbols. These properties apply to all regular polygons, whether convex or star: A regular n-sided polygon has rotational symmetry of order n. All vertices of a regular polygon lie on a common circle (the circumscribed circle); i.e

    A polytope is a geometric object with flat sides, which exists in any general number of dimensions. The following list of polygons, polyhedra and polytopes gives the names of various classes of polytopes and lists some specific examples.

  7. Digon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digon

    In geometry, a bigon, [1] digon, or a 2-gon, is a polygon with two sides and two vertices.Its construction is degenerate in a Euclidean plane because either the two sides would coincide or one or both would have to be curved; however, it can be easily visualised in elliptic space.

  8. List of uniform polyhedra - Wikipedia

    Note on Vertex figure images: The white polygon lines represent the "vertex figure" polygon. The colored faces are included on the vertex figure images help see their relations. Some of the intersecting faces are drawn visually incorrectly because they are not properly intersected visually to show which portions are in front.

    Star polygon – there are multiple types of stars Pentagram - star polygon with 5 sides; Hexagram – star polygon with 6 sides Star of David (example) Heptagram – star polygon with 7 sides; Octagram – star polygon with 8 sides Star of Lakshmi (example) Enneagram - star polygon with 9 sides; Decagram - star polygon with 10 sides
