  1. Star polygon - Wikipedia

    • In geometry, a star polygon is a type of non-convex polygon. Regular star polygons have been studied in depth; while star polygons in general appear not to have been formally defined, certain notable ones can arise through truncation operations on regular simple or star polygons. Branko Grünbaum identified two primary usages of this terminology by Johannes … See more

    Names

    Star polygon names combine a numeral prefix, such as penta-, with the Greek suffix -gram (in this case generating the word pentagram). The prefix is normally a Greek cardinal, but synonyms using other prefixes exist. For e… See more

    Regular star polygon

    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 … See more

    In geometry, a star shape or a star polygon is a type of non-convex polygon and, most commonly, a type of decagon. Basically, a star shape is a non-convex polygon that looks similar to a star.

    In geometry, a star polyhedron is a polyhedron which has some repetitive quality of nonconvexity giving it a star-like visual quality. There are two general kinds of star polyhedron: Polyhedra which self-intersect in a repetitive way. Concave polyhedra of a particular kind which alternate convex and concave or saddle vertices in a repetitive way.

    In plane and solid geometry, a star, sometimes called a sheaf (Ball and Coxeter 1987, p. 141) is defined as a set of line segments with a common midpoint (Coxeter 1973, p. 27). The figures above show the first few regular -stars in the plane. A star is called nonsingular if no three of the lines comprising it are coplanar.

  4. Star Polygon -- from Wolfram MathWorld

    A star polygon {p/q}, with p,q positive integers, is a figure formed by connecting with straight lines every qth point out of p regularly spaced points lying on a circumference. The number q is called the polygon density of the star polygon.
