Pentagon Pentagon In geometry, a pentagon (from the Greek πέντε "pente" and γωνία "gonia", meaning "five" and "angle") is any five-sided polygon or 5-gon. The sum of the internal angles in a simple pentagon is 540°. A pentagon may be simple or self-intersecting. A self-intersecting "regular pentagon" (or "star pentagon") is called a pentagram. A "regular pentagon" has Schläfli symbol {5} and interior angles are 108°. A "regular pentagon" has five lines of reflectional symmetry, and rotational symmetry of order 5 (through 72°, 144°, 216° and 288°). The diagonals of a convex regular pentagon are in the golden ratio to its
Euler angles reached as follows: In sum, the three elemental rotations occur about "z", "x" and "z". Indeed, this sequence is often denoted "z-x-z" (or 3-1-3). Sets of rotation axes associated with both proper Euler angles and Tait–Bryan angles are commonly named using this notation (see above for details). There are six possibilities of choosing the rotation axes for proper Euler angles. In all of them, the first and third rotation axes are the same. The six possible sequences are: Angles are commonly defined according to the right-hand rule. Namely, they have positive values when they represent a rotation that appears clockwise
