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.
Edge, a 1-dimensional element; Face, a 2-dimensional element; Cell, a 3-dimensional element; Hypercell or Teron, a 4-dimensional element; Facet, an (n-1)-dimensional element; Ridge, an (n-2)-dimensional element; Peak, an (n-3)-dimensional element; For example, in a polyhedron (3-dimensional polytope), a face is a facet, an edge is a ridge, and ...
where φ = 1 + √ 5 / 2 is the golden ratio. Therefore, the circumradius of this rhombicosidodecahedron is the common distance of these points from the origin, namely √ φ 6 +2 = √ 8φ+7 for edge length 2. For unit edge length, R must be halved, giving R = √ 8φ+7 / 2 = √ 11+4 √ 5 / 2 ≈ 2.233.
This group has six mirror planes, each containing two edges of the cube or one edge of the tetrahedron, a single S 4 axis, and two C 3 axes. T d is isomorphic to S 4 , the symmetric group on 4 letters, because there is a 1-to-1 correspondence between the elements of T d and the 24 permutations of the four 3-fold axes.
There is a third topological polyhedral figure with 5 faces, degenerate as a polyhedron: it exists as a spherical tiling of digon faces, called a pentagonal hosohedron with Schläfli symbol {2,5}. It has 2 ( antipodal point ) vertices, 5 edges, and 5 digonal faces.
The points, lines, and polygons of a polyhedron are referred to as its vertices, edges, and faces, respectively. [1] A polyhedron is considered to be convex if: [ 2 ] The shortest path between any two of its vertices lies either within its interior or on its boundary .
A regular digon has both angles equal and both sides equal and is represented by Schläfli symbol {2}. It may be constructed on a sphere as a pair of 180 degree arcs connecting antipodal points, when it forms a lune. The digon is the simplest abstract polytope of rank 2. A truncated digon, t{2} is a square, {4}.
Curvilinear barrel distortion Curvilinear pincushion distortion. Curvilinear perspective, also five-point perspective, is a graphical projection used to draw 3D objects on 2D surfaces, for which (straight) lines on the 3D object are projected to curves on the 2D surface that are typically not straight (hence the qualifier "curvilinear" [citation needed]).
