Regular polygons
€8.95
Every quilter is familiar with the beautiful old quilts made from hexagons. But what exactly is a hexagon? A hexagon is a regular polygon. A regular polygon features sides of all the same length, and its angles are all the same size. A hexagon is a regular polygon with six sides and therefore six angles. You’ll see that there are seven regular polygons on this quilt. The red one is a hexagon. Polygons all have Greek names. From inside to outside:
- a regular triangle/trigon
- a regular quadrilateral/tetragon, though we usually call a regular quadrilateral a square
- a regular pentagon
- a regular hexagon
- a regular heptagon or septagon (Latin)
- a regular octagon
- a regular nonagon (Latin) or enneagon
The sizes are: 63 x 63 cm.
