Skew polygon Skew polygon In geometry, a skew polygon is a polygon whose vertices are not all coplanar. Skew polygons must have at least 4 vertices. The "interior" surface (or area) of such a polygon is not uniquely defined. Skew infinite polygons (apeirogons) have vertices which are not all collinear. A zig-zag skew polygon or antiprismatic polygon has vertices which alternate on two parallel planes, and thus must be even-sided. Regular skew polygon in 3 dimensions (and regular skew apeirogons in 2 dimensions) are always zig-zag. A regular skew polygon is isogonal with equal edge lengths. In 3 dimensions a regular skew
Regular Polytopes (book) Regular Polytopes (book) Regular Polytopes is a mathematical geometry book written by Canadian mathematician Harold Scott MacDonald Coxeter. Originally published in 1947, the book was updated and republished in 1963 and 1973. The book is a comprehensive survey of the geometry of regular polytopes, the generalisation of regular polygons and regular polyhedra to higher dimensions. Originating with an essay entitled "Dimensional Analogy" written in 1923, the first edition of the book took Coxeter twenty-four years to complete. "Regular Polytopes" is a standard reference work on regular polygons, polyhedra and their higher dimensional analogues. It is unusual in the breadth of
