Equilateral polygon Equilateral polygon In geometry, three or more than three straight lines (or segment of a line) make a polygon and an equilateral polygon is a polygon which has all sides of the same length. Except in the triangle case, it need not be equiangular (need not have all angles equal), but if it does then it is a regular polygon. If the number of sides is at least five, an equilateral polygon need not be a convex polygon: it could be concave or even self-intersecting. All regular polygons and isotoxal polygons are equilateral. An equilateral triangle is a regular triangle
Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons vertex and one has an odd number of sides, the other two polygons must be the same. If they are not, they would have to alternate around the first polygon, which is impossible if its number of sides is odd. By that restriction these six cannot appear in any tiling of regular polygons: These four can be used in "k"-uniform tiling: Some of the "k"-uniform tilings can be derived by symmetrically dissecting the tiling polygons with interior edges, for example: Some k-uniform tilings can be derived by dissecting regular polygons with new vertices along the original edges, for example: There
