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 (of order 2"n"): "D", "D", "D", ... It consists of the rotations in "C", together with reflection symmetry in "n" axes that pass through the center. If "n" is even then half of these axes pass through two opposite vertices, and the other half through the midpoint of opposite sides. If "n" is odd then all axes pass through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. All regular simple polygons (a simple polygon is one that does not intersect itself anywhere) are convex. Those having the same number of sides are also similar. An "n"-sided convex regular polygon
