Dodecagon

A dodecagon is a 2-dimensional polygon with twelve edges. The Bowers acronym for a dodecagon is dog.

Structure and Sections[]

The regular dodecagon has each angle at 150 degrees. It can be seen as a truncated hexagon.

The vertices of a regular dodecagon centered at the origin, of side 2, can be given by all sign changes of:

Dual: Self-dual
Vertex figure (and second diagonal): Line segment, length $\frac{\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{6}}{2}$
Third diagonal: [[Length $1+\sqrt{3}$
Fourth diagonal: Length $\frac{3\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{6}}{2}$
Fifth diagonal: Length $2+\sqrt{3}$
Longest diagonal: Length $\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{6}$
