  2. Rectilinear polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectilinear_polygon

    Some examples of rectilinear polygons. A rectilinear polygon is a polygon all of whose sides meet at right angles. Thus the interior angle at each vertex is either 90° or 270°. Rectilinear polygons are a special case of isothetic polygons.

  3. Polygon covering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon_covering

    A rectilinear polygon can always be covered with a finite number of vertices of the polygon. [1] The algorithm uses a local optimization approach: it builds the covering by iteratively selecting maximal squares that are essential to the cover (i.e., contain uncovered points not covered by other maximal squares) and then deleting from the polygon the points that become unnecessary (i.e ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_gallery_problem

    The question about how many vertices/watchmen/guards were needed, was posed to Chvátal by Victor Klee in 1973. [1] Chvátal proved it shortly thereafter. [2] Chvátal's proof was later simplified by Steve Fisk, via a 3-coloring argument. [3] Chvátal has a more geometrical approach, whereas Fisk uses well-known results from Graph theory.

  5. Rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangle

    In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is a rectilinear convex polygon or a quadrilateral with four right angles.It can also be defined as: an equiangular quadrilateral, since equiangular means that all of its angles are equal (360°/4 = 90°); or a parallelogram containing a right angle.

  6. Polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon

    The area of a self-intersecting polygon can be defined in two different ways, giving different answers: Using the formulas for simple polygons, we allow that particular regions within the polygon may have their area multiplied by a factor which we call the density of the region. For example, the central convex pentagon in the center of a ...

    They have a lot of answers at the premium positions — quarterback, top corner, pass rush and pass protection are in good shape. They’ll need to plan for the future on both lines but neither is ...

  8. Shape and form (visual arts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_and_form_(visual_arts)

    In the visual arts, shape is a flat, enclosed area of an artwork created through lines, textures, or colours, or an area enclosed by other shapes, such as triangles, circles, and squares. [1] Likewise, a form can refer to a three-dimensional composition or object within a three-dimensional composition. [2]

  9. T puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_puzzle

    The T-puzzle, a T shape can be assembled with the four pieces on the left. The T puzzle is a tiling puzzle consisting of four polygonal shapes which can be put together to form a capital T. The four pieces are usually one isosceles right triangle , two right trapezoids and an irregular shaped pentagon .
