  2. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    This amounts to finding an area of a region by first comparing it to the area of a second region, which can be "exhausted" so that its area becomes arbitrarily close to the true area. The proof involves assuming that the true area is greater than the second area, proving that assertion false, assuming it is less than the second area, then ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoelace_formula

    Shoelace scheme for determining the area of a polygon with point coordinates (,),..., (,). The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula and the surveyor's formula, [1] is a mathematical algorithm to determine the area of a simple polygon whose vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the plane. [2]

    Regular polygons; Description Figure Second moment of area Comment A filled regular (equiliteral) triangle with a side length of a = = [6] The result is valid for both a horizontal and a vertical axis through the centroid, and therefore is also valid for an axis with arbitrary direction that passes through the origin.

    Class II (b=c): {3,q+} b,b are easier to see from the dual polyhedron {q,3} with q-gonal faces first divided into triangles with a central point, and then all edges are divided into b sub-edges. Class III : {3, q +} b , c have nonzero unequal values for b , c , and exist in chiral pairs.

  6. Hendecagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hendecagon

    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: Z 11, and Z 1. These 4 symmetries can be seen in 4 distinct symmetries on the hendecagon. John Conway labels these by a letter and group order. [11]

  7. Goldberg polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldberg_polyhedron

    They are defined by three properties: each face is either a pentagon or hexagon, exactly three faces meet at each vertex, and they have rotational icosahedral symmetry. They are not necessarily mirror-symmetric; e.g. GP(5,3) and GP(3,5) are enantiomorphs of each other. A Goldberg polyhedron is a dual polyhedron of a geodesic polyhedron.

    Broken down, 3 6; 3 6 (both of different transitivity class), or (3 6) 2, tells us that there are 2 vertices (denoted by the superscript 2), each with 6 equilateral 3-sided polygons (triangles). With a final vertex 3 4.6, 4 more contiguous equilateral triangles and a single regular hexagon.
