In geometry, a heptagon or septagon is a seven-sided polygon or 7-gon. The heptagon is sometimes referred to as the septagon, using "sept-" (an elision of septua-, a Latin-derived numerical prefix, rather than hepta-, a Greek-derived numerical prefix; both are cognate) together with the Greek suffix "-agon" meaning angle.
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. These segments are called its edges or sides, and the points where two of the edges meet are the polygon's vertices (singular: vertex) or corners.
A non-convex regular polygon is a regular star polygon. The most common example is the pentagram , which has the same vertices as a pentagon , but connects alternating vertices. For an n -sided star polygon, the Schläfli symbol is modified to indicate the density or "starriness" m of the polygon, as { n / m }.
In general, a heptagram is any self-intersecting heptagon (7-sided polygon). There are two regular heptagrams, labeled as {7/2} and {7/3}, with the second number representing the vertex interval step from a regular heptagon, {7/1}. This is the smallest star polygon that can be drawn in two forms, as irreducible fractions.

In geometry, a polygon (/ ˈ p ɒ l ɪ ɡ ɒ n /) is a plane figure made up of line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain. The segments of a closed polygonal chain are called its edges or sides. The points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices or corners. An n-gon is a polygon with n sides; for example, a triangle is a 3 ...
A polytope is a geometric object with flat sides, which exists in any general number of dimensions. ... E 6 / E 7 / E 8 / F 4 / G 2: H n: Regular polygon: Triangle ...
The convex forms are listed in order of degree of vertex configurations from 3 faces/vertex and up, and in increasing sides per face. This ordering allows topological similarities to be shown. There are infinitely many prisms and antiprisms, one for each regular polygon; the ones up to the 12-gonal cases are listed.
