Hendecagon Hendecagon In geometry, a hendecagon (also undecagon or endecagon) or 11-gon is an eleven-sided polygon. (The name "hendecagon", from Greek "hendeka" "eleven" and "gon–" "corner", is often preferred to the hybrid "undecagon", whose first part is formed from Latin "undecim" "eleven".) A "regular hendecagon" is represented by Schläfli symbol {11}. A regular hendecagon has internal angles of 147.27 degrees (=147 formula_1 degrees). The area of a regular hendecagon with side length "a" is given by As 11 is not a Fermat prime, the regular hendecagon is not constructible with compass and straightedge. Because 11 is not a Pierpont prime, construction
How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? The practical lesson to be drawn from the argument is not to use words like "there" in a loose, unscientific way, without specifying whether you mean "located there" or "occupying space there." In the humoristic magazine "Annals of Improbable Research", Anders Sandberg has presented a calculation based on theories of information physics and quantum gravity, establishing an upper bound of 8.6766×10 angels. Comparing medieval superstition and modern science, George Bernard Shaw wrote in the introduction to the play "Saint Joan" that "The medieval doctors of divinity who did not pretend to settle how many angels could dance on the point
