  2. Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_tilings_by...

    Broken down, 3 6; 3 6 (both of different transitivity class), or (3 6) 2, tells us that there are 2 vertices (denoted by the superscript 2), each with 6 equilateral 3-sided polygons (triangles). With a final vertex 3 4.6, 4 more contiguous equilateral triangles and a single regular hexagon.

    Commonly used when measuring the flat surfaces of a hex drive, such as a hex nut. AFF above finished floor A dimension that establishes a distance away from the finished floor. Example would be the top of a coffee table to the shag of the carpet, not where the bottom of the tables feet dig in. AISI: American Iron and Steel Institute

  4. Hexagonal tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_tiling

    The honeycomb conjecture states that hexagonal tiling is the best way to divide a surface into regions of equal area with the least total perimeter. The optimal three-dimensional structure for making honeycomb (or rather, soap bubbles) was investigated by Lord Kelvin , who believed that the Kelvin structure (or body-centered cubic lattice) is ...

    Regular polygons; Description Figure Second moment of area Comment A filled regular (equiliteral) triangle with a side length of a = = [6] The result is valid for both a horizontal and a vertical axis through the centroid, and therefore is also valid for an axis with arbitrary direction that passes through the origin.

  6. Goldberg polyhedron - Wikipedia

    The number of vertices, edges, and faces of GP(m,n) can be computed from m and n, with T = m 2 + mn + n 2 = (m + n) 2 − mn, depending on one of three symmetry systems: [1] The number of non-hexagonal faces can be determined using the Euler characteristic, as demonstrated here.

  7. Constructible polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructible_polygon

    If p = 2, draw a q-gon and bisect one of its central angles. From this, a 2q-gon can be constructed. If p > 2, inscribe a p-gon and a q-gon in the same circle in such a way that they share a vertex. Because p and q are coprime, there exists integers a and b such that ap + bq = 1. Then 2aπ/q + 2bπ/p = 2π/pq. From this, a pq-gon can be ...

  8. Rhombitrihexagonal tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombitrihexagonal_tiling

    There is only one uniform coloring in a rhombitrihexagonal tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex (3.4.6.4): 1232.) With edge-colorings there is a half symmetry form (3*3) orbifold notation.

  9. Truncated trihexagonal tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_trihexagonal_tiling

    The truncated trihexagonal tiling has three related 2-uniform tilings, one being a 2-uniform coloring of the semiregular rhombitrihexagonal tiling. The first dissects the hexagons into 6 triangles. The other two dissect the dodecagons into a central hexagon and surrounding triangles and square, in two different orientations. [2] [3]
