    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 … See more

    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 … See more

    The interior of a star polygon may be treated in different ways. Three such treatments are illustrated for a pentagram. Branko Grünbaum and … See more

    Star polygons feature prominently in art and culture. Such polygons may or may not be regular, but they are always highly symmetrical. … See more

    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 See more

    When the intersecting line segments are removed from a regular star n-gon, the resulting figure is no longer regular, but can be seen as an isotoxal concave simple 2n-gon, alternating vertices at two different radii. Branko Grünbaum, in Tilings and patterns See more

  3. What is a Star Shape? | Definition & Types of Star | Twinkl

    In geometry, a star shape or a star polygon is a type of non-convex polygon. This is a shape where all the angles inside the polygon are less than 180 degrees. Most commonly, star shapes are also a type of decagon. But these …

  5. 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.

  10. The Pentagram - Math is Fun

    The Pentagram (or Pentangle) looks like a 5-pointed star. You may think it has something to do with witchcraft, but in fact it is more famous as a magical symbol and is also a holy symbol in many religions. In fact, this simple figure is quite …
