A partition of the Euclidean line into infinitely many equal-length segments can be understood as a regular apeirogon. In geometry, an apeirogon (from Ancient Greek ἄπειρος apeiros 'infinite, boundless' and γωνία gonia 'angle') or infinite polygon is a polygon with an infinite number of sides.
In geometry, an infinite skew polygon or skew apeirogon is an infinite 2-polytope with vertices that are not all colinear. Infinite zig-zag skew polygons are 2-dimensional infinite skew polygons with vertices alternating between two parallel lines.
Special polygons in hyperbolic geometry are the regular apeirogon and pseudogon uniform polygons with an infinite number of sides. In Euclidean geometry , the only way to construct such a polygon is to make the side lengths tend to zero and the apeirogon is indistinguishable from a circle, or make the interior angles tend to 180° and the ...
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.
Heptagram – star polygon with 7 sides; Octagram – star polygon with 8 sides Star of Lakshmi (example) Enneagram - star polygon with 9 sides; Decagram - star polygon with 10 sides; Hendecagram - star polygon with 11 sides; Dodecagram - star polygon with 12 sides; Apeirogon - generalized polygon with countably infinite set of sides
For a regular polygon with 10,000 sides (a myriagon) the internal angle is 179.964°. As the number of sides increases, the internal angle can come very close to 180°, and the shape of the polygon approaches that of a circle. However the polygon can never become a circle.

In 1926 John Flinders Petrie took the concept of a regular skew polygons, polygons whose vertices are not all in the same plane, and extended it to polyhedra.While apeirohedra are typically required to tile the 2-dimensional plane, Petrie considered cases where the faces were still convex but were not required to lie flat in the plane, they could have a skew polygon vertex figure.
