Similarity (geometry) similar polygons, corresponding sides taken in the same sequence (even if clockwise for one polygon and counterclockwise for the other) are proportional and corresponding angles taken in the same sequence are equal in measure. However, proportionality of corresponding sides is not by itself sufficient to prove similarity for polygons beyond triangles (otherwise, for example, all rhombi would be similar). Likewise, equality of all angles in sequence is not sufficient to guarantee similarity (otherwise all rectangles would be similar). A sufficient condition for similarity of polygons is that corresponding sides and diagonals are proportional. For given "n", all regular "n"-gons are
Regular polygon (of order 2"n"): "D", "D", "D", ... It consists of the rotations in "C", together with reflection symmetry in "n" axes that pass through the center. If "n" is even then half of these axes pass through two opposite vertices, and the other half through the midpoint of opposite sides. If "n" is odd then all axes pass through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. All regular simple polygons (a simple polygon is one that does not intersect itself anywhere) are convex. Those having the same number of sides are also similar. An "n"-sided convex regular polygon
