Dih 15 has 3 dihedral subgroups: Dih 5, Dih 3, and Dih 1. And four more cyclic symmetries: Z 15, Z 5, Z 3, and Z 1, with Z n representing π/n radian rotational symmetry. On the pentadecagon, there are 8 distinct symmetries. John Conway labels these symmetries with a letter and order of the symmetry follows the letter. [3]
In geometry, a pentagon (from Greek πέντε (pente) 'five' and γωνία (gonia) 'angle' [1]) is any five-sided polygon or 5-gon. The sum of the internal angles in a simple pentagon is 540°. A pentagon may be simple or self-intersecting. A self-intersecting regular pentagon (or star pentagon) is called a pentagram.

and each exterior angle (i.e., supplementary to the interior angle) has a measure of degrees, with the sum of the exterior angles equal to 360 degrees or 2π radians or one full turn. As n approaches infinity, the internal angle approaches 180 degrees.
One interior angle in a regular triacontagon is 168 degrees, meaning that one exterior angle would be 12°. The triacontagon is the largest regular polygon whose interior angle is the sum of the interior angles of smaller polygons: 168° is the sum of the interior angles of the equilateral triangle (60°) and the regular pentagon (108°).
In particular this is true for regular polygons with evenly many sides, in which case the parallelograms are all rhombi. For the regular icositetragon, m=12, and it can be divided into 66: 6 squares and 5 sets of 12 rhombs. This decomposition is based on a Petrie polygon projection of a 12-cube.
An isotoxal polygon can be labeled as {p α} with outer most internal angle α, and a star polygon {(p/q) α}, with q is a winding number, and gcd(p,q)=1, q<p. Isotoxal tetradecagons have p =7, and since 7 is prime all solutions, q=1..6, are polygons.
F 0 = 3, F 1 = 5, F 2 = 17, F 3 = 257, and F 4 = 65537 (sequence A019434 in the OEIS). Since there are 31 nonempty subsets of the five known Fermat primes, there are 31 known constructible polygons with an odd number of sides. The next twenty-eight Fermat numbers, F 5 through F 32, are known to be composite. [3] Thus a regular n-gon is ...
