The digon is the degenerate polygon (corresponding to a line segment) with Schläfli symbol {2}.

The regular heptagon is the seven-sided regular polygon illustrated above, which has Schläfli symbol {7}. According to Bankoff and Garfunkel (1973), "since the earliest days ...

Let A be the area of a simply closed lattice polygon. Let B denote the number of lattice points on the polygon edges and I the number of points in the interior of the ...

The apeirogon is an extension of the definition of regular polygon to a figure with an infinite number of sides. Its Schläfli symbol is {infty}. The apeirogon can produce a ...

A 100-sided polygon, virtually indistinguishable in appearance from a circle except at very high magnification.

Using a set of corners of a solid that lie in a plane to form the polygon vertices of a new polygon is called faceting. Such polygons may outline new faces that join to ...

The circumcenter of mass is a concept that can be defined by analogy with one of the the constructions for the geometric centroid for the case of polygons. The geometric ...

Alexandrov's theorem addresses conditions under which a polygon will fold into a convex polyhedron (Malkevitch).

Given a circle, the apothem is the perpendicular distance r from the midpoint of a chord to the circle's center. It is also equal to the radius R minus the sagitta h, r=R-h. ...

A decagon is a ten-sided polygon. Several special types of decagons are illustrated above. In particular, a decagon with vertices equally spaced around a circle and with all ...
