A skew decagon is a skew polygon with 10 vertices and edges but not existing on the same plane. The interior of such a decagon is not generally defined. A skew zig-zag decagon has vertices alternating between two parallel planes. A regular skew decagon is vertex-transitive with equal edge lengths.
A regular decagram is a 10-sided polygram, represented by symbol {10/n}, containing the same vertices as regular decagon.Only one of these polygrams, {10/3} (connecting every third point), forms a regular star polygon, but there are also three ten-vertex polygrams which can be interpreted as regular compounds:
Golden triangles can also be found in a regular decagon, an equiangular and equilateral ten-sided polygon, by connecting any two adjacent vertices to the center. This is because: 180(10−2)/10 = 144° is the interior angle, and bisecting it through the vertex to the center: 144/2 = 72°. [1]

For the regular hexadecagon, m=8, and it can be divided into 28: 4 squares and 3 sets of 8 rhombs. This decomposition is based on a Petrie polygon projection of an 8-cube , with 28 of 1792 faces. The list OEIS : A006245 enumerates the number of solutions as 1232944, including up to 16-fold rotations and chiral forms in reflection.
For a regular n-gon, the sum of the perpendicular distances from any interior point to the n sides is n times the apothem [4]: p. 72 (the apothem being the distance from the center to any side). This is a generalization of Viviani's theorem for the n = 3 case.
