Congruence (geometry) size. (Most definitions consider congruence to be a form of similarity, although a minority require that the objects have different sizes in order to qualify as similar.) For two polygons to be congruent, they must have an equal number of sides (and hence an equal number—the same number—of vertices). Two polygons with "n" sides are congruent if and only if they each have numerically identical sequences (even if clockwise for one polygon and counterclockwise for the other) side-angle-side-angle-... for "n" sides and "n" angles. Congruence of polygons can be established graphically as follows: If at any time the step cannot
Rectification (geometry) 2r{p,q...}. For polyhedra, a birectification creates a dual polyhedron. Higher degree rectifications can be constructed for higher dimensional polytopes. In general an n-rectification truncates "n-faces" to points. If an n-polytope is (n-1)-rectified, its facets are reduced to points and the polytope becomes its dual. There are different equivalent notations for each degree of rectification. These tables show the names by dimension and the two type of facets for each. Facets are edges, represented as {2}. Facets are regular polygons. Facets are regular or rectified polyhedra. Facets are regular or rectified 4-polytopes. Rectification (geometry) In Euclidean geometry, rectification or complete-truncation is
