Mapping of regular polygons: octagon
√2+1 lines, one being the side of the regular octagon. |
√ 2 |
√ 2 |
a2 + b2 = c2. (√ 2+1)2 +(1)2 = c2 |
Lines of one |
a2 + b2 = c2. (√2/2)2 + (√2/2+1)2 =c2 |

Mapping of regular polygons
Mapping regular polygons(from my point of view) is mainly about measuring lines and segments of diagonal lines of regular polygons. It is also about looking for patterns occurring in regular polygons. In an octagon we can easily find ratios of square root 2, finding ratios and patterns in other polygons is much more difficult.
