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:
Regular convex and star polygons with 3 to 12 vertices, labeled with their Schläfli symbols A regular star polygon is a self-intersecting, equilateral, and equiangular polygon . A regular star polygon is denoted by its Schläfli symbol { p / q }, where p (the number of vertices) and q (the density ) are relatively prime (they share no factors ...
These segments are called its edges or sides, and the points where two of the edges meet are the polygon's vertices (singular: vertex) or corners. The word polygon comes from Late Latin polygōnum (a noun), from Greek πολύγωνον ( polygōnon/polugōnon ), noun use of neuter of πολύγωνος ( polygōnos/polugōnos , the masculine ...
The symmetries of a regular pentadecagon as shown with colors on edges and vertices. Lines of reflections are blue. Gyrations are given as numbers in the center. Vertices are colored by their symmetry positions. The regular pentadecagon has Dih 15 dihedral symmetry, order 30, represented by 15 lines of reflection.
Publication by C. F. Gauss in Intelligenzblatt der allgemeinen Literatur-Zeitung. As 17 is a Fermat prime, the regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is, one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge): this was shown by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1796 at the age of 19.

Each dodecahedral cell of the 120-cell is diminished by removal of 4 of its 20 vertices, creating an irregular 16-point polyhedron called the tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron because the 4 vertices removed formed a tetrahedron inscribed in the dodecahedron. Since the vertex figure of the dodecahedron is the triangle, each truncated vertex ...
3D projection of the 5-cell, showing its vertices, edges, and ridges The 5-cell or pentatope (a regular simplex in four dimensions) has five vertices , ten edges , ten triangular ridges (2-dimensional faces), and five tetrahedral facets ; the edges and ridges touch each other in the same pattern as the Desargues configuration.
