convex polygon
convex hull of a finite set of points in a plane
equilateral polygon
polygon in which all sides have equal length
simple polygon

golygon

A golygon, or more generally a serial isogon of 90°, is any polygon with all right angles (a rectilinear polygon) whose sides are consecutive integer lengths. Golygons were invented and named by Lee Sallows, and popularized by A.K. Dewdney in a 1990 Scientific American column (Smith). Variations on the definition of golygons involve allowing edges to cross, using sequences of edge lengt
parallelogon
thumb|A parallelogon is constructed by two or three pairs of parallel line segments. The vertices and edges on the interior of the hexagon are suppressed.
thumb|There are five Bravais lattice#Bravais lattices in at most two dimensions|Bravais lattices in two dimensions, related to the parallelogon tessellations by their five symmetry variations.
monotone polygon
property of a geometric object
biggest little polygon
n-sided polygon that has diameter 1 and the largest area among all diameter-1 n-gons
Pentagramma mirificum
a star polygon on a sphere, composed of five great circle arcs, whose all internal angles are right angles.
