Regular polygon is denoted by its Schläfli symbol {"n"}. For "n" < 3, we have two degenerate cases: In certain contexts all the polygons considered will be regular. In such circumstances it is customary to drop the prefix regular. For instance, all the faces of uniform polyhedra must be regular and the faces will be described simply as triangle, square, pentagon, etc. For a regular convex "n"-gon, each interior angle has a measure of: and each exterior angle (i.e., supplementary to the interior angle) has a measure of formula_5 degrees, with the sum of the exterior angles equal to 360 degrees or
Near-miss Johnson solid polygon faces. Some failed Johnson solid candidates have coplanar faces. These polyhedra can be perturbed to become convex with faces that are arbitrarily close to regular polygons. These cases use 4.4.4.4 vertex figures of the square tiling, 3.3.3.3.3.3 vertex figure of the triangular tiling, as well as 60 degree rhombi divided double equilateral triangle faces, or a 60 degree trapezoid as three equilateral triangles. Examples: 3.3.3.3.3.3 4.4.4.4 3.4.6.4: Near-miss Johnson solid In geometry, a near-miss Johnson solid is a strictly convex polyhedron whose faces are close to being regular polygons but some or all of which are not precisely regular.
