  2. Dodecagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecagon

    Three squares of sides R can be cut and rearranged into a dodecagon of circumradius R, yielding a proof without words that its area is 3R 2. A regular dodecagon is a figure with sides of the same length and internal angles of the same size. It has twelve lines of reflective symmetry and rotational symmetry of order 12.

  3. Liu Hui's π algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liu_Hui's_π_algorithm

    The area within a circle is equal to the radius multiplied by half the circumference, or A = r x C /2 = r x r x π.. Liu Hui argued: "Multiply one side of a hexagon by the radius (of its circumcircle), then multiply this by three, to yield the area of a dodecagon; if we cut a hexagon into a dodecagon, multiply its side by its radius, then again multiply by six, we get the area of a 24-gon; the ...

    Comparison of sizes of regular polygons with the same edge length, from three to sixty sides. The size increases without bound as the number of sides approaches infinity. Of all n-gons with a given perimeter, the one with the largest area is regular. [10]

  7. Method of exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    The area bounded by one spiral rotation and a line is 1/3 that of the circle having a radius equal to the line segment length; Use of the method of exhaustion also led to the successful evaluation of an infinite geometric series (for the first time);

  8. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_centroids

    The following is a list of centroids of various two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects. The centroid of an object in -dimensional space is the intersection of all hyperplanes that divide into two parts of equal moment about the hyperplane.

  9. Digon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digon

    In geometry, a bigon, [1] digon, or a 2-gon, is a polygon with two sides and two vertices.Its construction is degenerate in a Euclidean plane because either the two sides would coincide or one or both would have to be curved; however, it can be easily visualised in elliptic space.
