Symmetries of a regular hendecagon. Vertices are colored by their symmetry positions. Blue mirror lines are drawn through vertices and edge. Gyration orders are given in the center. The regular hendecagon has Dih 11 symmetry, order 22. Since 11 is a prime number there is one subgroup with dihedral symmetry: Dih 1, and 2 cyclic group symmetries ...
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. The word polygon comes from Late Latin polygōnum (a noun), from Greek πολύγωνον ( polygōnon/polugōnon ), noun use of neuter of πολύγωνος ( polygōnos/polugōnos , the masculine ...
The 5 Platonic solids are called a tetrahedron, hexahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron with 4, 6, 8, 12, and 20 sides respectively. The regular hexahedron is a cube . Table of polyhedra
Number of vertices V, edges E, Faces F and number of faces by type. Euler characteristic χ = V - E + F The vertex figures are on the left, followed by the Point groups in three dimensions#The seven remaining point groups , either tetrahedral T d , octahedral O h or icosahedral I h .
The Archimedean solids have a single vertex configuration and highly symmetric properties. A vertex configuration indicates which regular polygons meet at each vertex. For instance, the configuration indicates a polyhedron in which each vertex is met by alternating two triangles and two pentagons.
All vertices are valence-6 except the 12 centered at the original vertices which are valence 5. A geodesic polyhedron is a convex polyhedron made from triangles. They usually have icosahedral symmetry, such that they have 6 triangles at a vertex, except 12 vertices which have 5 triangles.
In geometry, a polyhedron is a solid in three dimensions with flat faces and straight edges. Every edge has exactly two faces, and every vertex is surrounded by alternating faces and edges. The smallest polyhedron is the tetrahedron with 4 triangular faces, 6 edges, and 4 vertices.
The bisymmetric hendecahedron contains 11 faces and can be arranged in 3D without gaps. A hendecahedron (or undecahedron) is a polyhedron with 11 faces.There are many topologically distinct forms of a hendecahedron, for example the decagonal pyramid, and enneagonal prism.
