Aperiodic set of prototiles seen on the list of aperiodic sets of tiles. The underlying undecidability of the domino problem implies that there exists no systematic procedure for deciding whether a given set of tiles can tile the plane. Polygons are plane figures which are bounded by straight line segments. Regular polygons have all sides of equal length as well as all angles of equal measure. As early as AD 325, Pappus of Alexandria knew that only 3 types of regular polygons (the square, equilateral triangle, and hexagon) can fit perfectly together in repeating tessellations on a Euclidean plane. Within that plane, every triangle,
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
