In geometry, a decagon (from the Greek δέκα déka and γωνία gonía, "ten angles") is a ten-sided polygon or 10-gon. [1] The total sum of the interior angles of a simple decagon is 1440°. Regular decagon
A regular star pentagon, {5/2}, has five vertices (its corner tips) and five intersecting edges, while a concave decagon, |5/2|, has ten edges and two sets of five vertices. The first is used in definitions of star polyhedra and star uniform tilings , while the second is sometimes used in planar tilings.
An example of a concave polygon. A simple polygon that is not convex is called concave , [ 1 ] non-convex [ 2 ] or reentrant . [ 3 ] A concave polygon will always have at least one reflex interior angle —that is, an angle with a measure that is between 180 degrees and 360 degrees exclusive.
A five-pointed star. A five-pointed star (☆), geometrically an equilateral concave decagon, is a common ideogram in modern culture. Comparatively rare in classical heraldry, it was notably introduced for the flag of the United States in the Flag Act of 1777 and since has become widely used in flags.

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.
