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 coprime, or the figure will degenerate. The degenerate regular stars of up to 12 sides are: Depending on the precise derivation of the Schläfli symbol, opinions differ as to the nature of the degenerate figure. For example, {6/2} may be treated in either of two ways: All regular polygons are self-dual to congruency, and for odd "n" they are self-dual to identity. In addition, the regular star figures (compounds), being composed of regular polygons, are also self-dual. A uniform polyhedron has regular polygons as faces, such that for every two vertices there is an isometry mapping one into the other
