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
Corresponding sides and corresponding angles Corresponding sides and corresponding angles In geometry, the tests for congruence and similarity involve comparing corresponding sides and corresponding angles of polygons. In these tests, each side and each angle in one polygon is paired with a side or angle in the second polygon, taking care to preserve the order of adjacency. For example, if one polygon has sequential sides "a", "b", "c", "d", and "e" and the other has sequential sides "v", "w", "x", "y", and "z", and if "b" and "w" are corresponding sides, then side "a" (adjacent to "b") must correspond to either "v" or "x" (both
