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 "n"-gon, the sum of the perpendicular distances from any interior point to the "n" sides is "n" times the apothem (the apothem being the distance from the center to any side). This is a generalization of Viviani's theorem for the "n"=3 case. The circumradius "R" from the center of a regular polygon to one of the vertices is related to the side length "s" or to the apothem "a" by For constructible polygons, algebraic expressions for these relationships exist; see Bicentric polygon#Regular polygons. The sum of the perpendiculars from a regular "n"-gon's vertices to any line tangent to the circumcircle
