  2. Isogonal figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isogonal_figure

    In geometry, a polytope (e.g. a polygon or polyhedron) or a tiling is isogonal or vertex-transitive if all its vertices are equivalent under the symmetries of the figure. This implies that each vertex is surrounded by the same kinds of face in the same or reverse order, and with the same angles between corresponding faces.

  3. Equiangular polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equiangular_polygon

    In Euclidean geometry, an equiangular polygon is a polygon whose vertex angles are equal. If the lengths of the sides are also equal (that is, if it is also equilateral) then it is a regular polygon. Isogonal polygons are equiangular polygons which alternate two edge lengths. For clarity, a planar equiangular polygon can be called direct or ...

  4. Isogon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isogon

    An isogon may refer to: Isogonal figure - a polygon or polyhedron with all of its vertices equivalent under the symmetries of the figure.

  5. Regular polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_polygon

    In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is direct equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) and equilateral (all sides have the same length). Regular polygons may be either convex, star or skew.

  6. Icositetragon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icositetragon

    In geometry, an icositetragon (or icosikaitetragon) or 24-gon is a twenty-four-sided polygon. The sum of any icositetragon's interior angles is 3960 degrees. The sum of any icositetragon's interior angles is 3960 degrees.

  7. Isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometry

    Definition: [7] The midpoint of two elements x and y in a vector space is the vector ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ (x + y). Theorem [ 7 ] [ 8 ] — Let A : X → Y be a surjective isometry between normed spaces that maps 0 to 0 ( Stefan Banach called such maps rotations ) where note that A is not assumed to be a linear isometry.

  8. Polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon

    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 ...

  9. On Growth and Form - Wikipedia

    It was a compelling demonstration of how readily one can use physical and geometric principles in trying to understand biology. This was a major contribution in 1917 when vitalism was still being defended by prominent biologists. The battle was as won as it is ever likely to be by the time of the 1942 edition.
