In geometry, a heptagon or septagon is a seven-sided polygon or 7-gon.. The heptagon is sometimes referred to as the septagon, using "sept-" (an elision of septua-, a Latin-derived numerical prefix, rather than hepta-, a Greek-derived numerical prefix; both are cognate) together with the Greek suffix "-agon" meaning angle.
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.
3D model of a (uniform) pentagonal prism In geometry , the pentagonal prism is a prism with a pentagonal base. It is a type of heptahedron with seven faces , fifteen edges , and ten vertices .
There are two regular heptagrams, labeled as {7/2} and {7/3}, with the second number representing the vertex interval step from a regular heptagon, {7/1}. This is the smallest star polygon that can be drawn in two forms, as irreducible fractions. The two heptagrams are sometimes called the heptagram (for {7/2}) and the great heptagram (for {7/3}).
In the above coordinates, the first 12 vertices form a regular icosahedron, the next 20 vertices (those with R) form a regular dodecahedron, and the last 30 vertices (those with S) form an icosidodecahedron. Normalizing all vertices to the unit sphere gives a spherical disdyakis triacontahedron
There are 34 topologically distinct convex heptahedra, excluding mirror images. [2] ( Two polyhedra are "topologically distinct" if they have intrinsically different arrangements of faces and vertices, such that it is impossible to distort one into the other simply by changing the lengths of edges or the angles between edges or faces.)
There are 3 subgroup dihedral symmetries: Dih 7, Dih 2, and Dih 1, and 4 cyclic group symmetries: Z 14, Z 7, Z 2, and Z 1. These 8 symmetries can be seen in 10 distinct symmetries on the tetradecagon, a larger number because the lines of reflections can either pass through vertices or edges. John Conway labels these by a letter and group order. [4]
