Polygon catalogue¶

Every side pattern of 3 to 6 sides, and every figure that can be asked for by name, drawn for the page layout — 196 in all, which is the whole of what a script can ask for. Under each figure: what a line would write to ask for it.

These figures are computed, not catalogued: the side pattern picks which sides are equal, and the inscribed construction turns the lengths into a shape (see perimeter_polygon). So this page is not a list to add to — it is what the generator draws, rebuilt whenever the docs are.

3 sides — 3 figures¶

4 sides — 9 figures¶

5 sides — 28 figures¶

6 sides — 144 figures¶

Named figures — 12¶
