polygon (/ˈpɒlɪɡɒn/) is a plane figure made up of line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain. The segments of a closed polygonal chain are...

given line and that intersect a polygonal chain in a plane that is not parallel to the given line. The polygonal chain is the directrix of the surface;...

polygon is a closed polygonal chain in Euclidean space. It is a figure similar to a polygon except its vertices are not all coplanar. While a polygon...

orthogonal to L intersects the boundary of P at most twice. Similarly, a polygonal chain C is called monotone with respect to a straight line L, if every line...

geometry, a polygon is traditionally a plane figure that is bounded by a finite chain of straight line segments closing in a loop to form a closed chain. These...

a continuous piecewise linear function on a compact interval is a polygonal chain. (*) A linear function satisfies by definition f ( λ x ) = λ f ( x...

the polygonal chain ABCBA is a weakly simple polygon according to this definition: it may be viewed as the limit of "squeezing" of the polygon ABCFGHA...

Polygon (formerly Matic Network) is a blockchain platform which aims to create a multi-chain blockchain system compatible with Ethereum. As with Ethereum...

cartographic generalisation. Given a polygonal chain (often called a polyline), the algorithm attempts to find a similar chain composed of fewer points. Points...

another tangent line, and continuing in the same way until the resulting polygonal chain closes up to an n-gon. The fact that it will always do so is implied...

distance between two points in a polygon is the minimum number of line segments of any polygonal chain within the polygon that has the two points as its...

knot is tame if and only if it can be represented as a finite closed polygonal chain. In knot theory and 3-manifold theory, often the adjective "tame" is...

unit-length curve if and only if it accommodates every unit-length polygonal chain with three segments, a more easily tested condition, but Panraksa,...

which is the polygon itself. The other regions, bounded by a polygonal chain of the polygon and a single convex hull edge, are called pockets. Computing...

In geometry, a spirangle is a spiral polygonal chain. Spirangles are similar to spirals in that they expand from a center point as they grow larger, but...
