Kite (geometry) across any one of its edges produces another tile; one of them is a right kite, with 60°, 90°, and 120° angles. The tiling that it produces by its reflections is the deltoidal trihexagonal tiling. Among all quadrilaterals, the shape that has the greatest ratio of its perimeter to its diameter is an equidiagonal kite with angles π/3, 5π/12, 5π/6, 5π/12. Its four vertices lie at the three corners and one of the side midpoints of the Reuleaux triangle (above to the right). In non-Euclidean geometry, a Lambert quadrilateral is a right kite with three right angles. A quadrilateral is
Angular defect Angular defect In geometry, the (angular) defect (or deficit or deficiency) means the failure of some angles to add up to the expected amount of 360° or 180°, when such angles in the Euclidean plane would. The opposite notion is the excess. Classically the defect arises in two ways: and the excess also arises in two ways: In the Euclidean plane, angles about a point add up to 360°, while interior angles in a triangle add up to 180° (equivalently, "exterior" angles add up to 360°). However, on a convex polyhedron the angles at a vertex on average add up
