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
Near-miss Johnson solid polygon faces. Some failed Johnson solid candidates have coplanar faces. These polyhedra can be perturbed to become convex with faces that are arbitrarily close to regular polygons. These cases use 4.4.4.4 vertex figures of the square tiling, 3.3.3.3.3.3 vertex figure of the triangular tiling, as well as 60 degree rhombi divided double equilateral triangle faces, or a 60 degree trapezoid as three equilateral triangles. Examples: 3.3.3.3.3.3 4.4.4.4 3.4.6.4: Near-miss Johnson solid In geometry, a near-miss Johnson solid is a strictly convex polyhedron whose faces are close to being regular polygons but some or all of which are not precisely regular.
