Regular polygon Regular polygon In Euclidean geometry, a regular polygon is a polygon that is equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) and equilateral (all sides have the same length). Regular polygons may be either convex or star. In the limit, a sequence of regular polygons with an increasing number of sides approximates a circle, if the perimeter or area is fixed, or a regular apeirogon (effectively a straight line), if the edge length is fixed. "These properties apply to all regular polygons, whether convex or star." A regular "n"-sided polygon has rotational symmetry of order "n". All vertices of a regular
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
