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
Regular polytope the vertex figure. Unlike the case for Euclidean polytopes, an abstract polytope with regular facets and vertex figures "may or may not" be regular itself – for example, the square pyramid, all of whose facets and vertex figures are regular abstract polygons. The classical vertex figure will, however, be a realisation of the abstract one. The traditional way to construct a regular polygon, or indeed any other figure on the plane, is by compass and straightedge. Constructing some regular polygons in this way is very simple (the easiest is perhaps the equilateral triangle), some are more complex, and some are
