Sub-list of the list of polytopes
Self-intersecting polygons,crossed polygons, orself-crossing polygons arepolygons some of whoseedges cross each other. They contrast withsimple polygons, whose edges never cross.
Some types of self-intersecting polygons are:
- thecrossed quadrilateral, with four edges
- theantiparallelogram, a crossed quadrilateral with alternate edges of equal length
- thecrossed rectangle, an antiparallelogram whose edges are two opposite sides and the two diagonals of arectangle, hence having two edges parallel
- Star polygons
- pentagram, with five edges
- hexagram, with six edges
- heptagram, with seven edges
- octagram, with eight edges
- enneagram or nonagram, with nine edges
- decagram, with ten edges
- hendecagram, with eleven edges
- dodecagram, with twelve edges
- icositetragram, with twenty four edges
- 257-gram, with two hundred and fifty seven edges
