  2. List of polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polygons

    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. These segments are called its edges or sides, and the points where two of the edges meet are the polygon's vertices (singular ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagon

    The area of a cyclic pentagon, whether regular or not, can be expressed as one fourth the square root of one of the roots of a septic equation whose coefficients are functions of the sides of the pentagon. [11] [12] [13] There exist cyclic pentagons with rational sides and rational area; these are called Robbins pentagons. It has been proven ...

    The five known Fermat primes are: F 0 = 3, F 1 = 5, F 2 = 17, F 3 = 257, and F 4 = 65537 (sequence A019434 in the OEIS). Since there are 31 nonempty subsets of the five known Fermat primes, there are 31 known constructible polygons with an odd number of sides. The next twenty-eight Fermat numbers, F 5 through F 32, are known to be composite. [3 ...

    √ (square-root symbol) Denotes square root and is read as the square root of. Rarely used in modern mathematics without a horizontal bar delimiting the width of its argument (see the next item). For example, √2. √ (radical symbol) 1. Denotes square root and is read as the square root of.

  7. Regular polytope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_polytope

    In mathematics, a regular polytope is a polytope whose symmetry group acts transitively on its flags, thus giving it the highest degree of symmetry.In particular, all its elements or j-faces (for all 0 ≤ j ≤ n, where n is the dimension of the polytope) — cells, faces and so on — are also transitive on the symmetries of the polytope, and are themselves regular polytopes of dimension j≤ n.

    The 5 Platonic solids are called a tetrahedron, hexahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron with 4, 6, 8, 12, and 20 sides respectively. The regular hexahedron is a cube . Table of polyhedra

  9. Polyomino - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyomino

    Define the upper-right square to be the rightmost square in the uppermost row of the polyomino. Define the bottom-left square similarly. Then, the upper-right square of any polyomino of size n can be attached to the bottom-left square of any polyomino of size m to produce a unique (n+m)-omino. This proves A n A m ≤ A n+m.
