HOW TO CONSTRUCT REGULAR POLYGONS INSCRIBED WITHIN A CIRCUMFERENCE - You need to find as many points as sides (or vertices) the polygon has, along a circumference´s perimeter, so that these are all equidistant. - Draw a circumference and its perpendicular A diameters. These rects intersect at point O and cut at the circumference at points A, B, C, D. This is the first step to find all the points that we need to construct the regular polygon for which we are looking . D C O - Each of the points of any polygon inscribed in a circunference, HAS TO BE located on the circumference´s perimeter. B TRIANGLE A - Draw a circumference and its perpendicular diameters to obtain points A and B B - Open the compass from point B A to point O and draw an arc to cut the circumference at points C and D B - Connect points A, C and D to A obtain the regular triangle O D C B SQUARE - From the first steps common to A all regular polygons we get four rect angles . D B O C - Find the angle bisector of each one.Those rects intersect the circumference at points E, F A G and H.....and they are the four vertices of the square. E F D B O H G C - Connect those points and we get the four sides of the square A E F D B O H G C PENTAGON A - Draw a circumference and its perpendicular diameters to obtain points A and B - Find the segment bisector of segment BO, obtaining point “m” B O m - Open the compass from “m” to point A and draw an arc that will intersect in “n”: A the distance A-n is one side of the pentagon B n O m - Opening the compass from A to n, take that distance to the perimeter, and you A obtain point F F B n O m - Place the compass at point F and repeat that A distance four more times to find the vertices of the pentagon: F, E, D, C, A C F B n O m E D - Connect those points along with A A to obtain the pentagon C F B n O m E D HEXAGON A - Draw a circumference and its perpendicular diameters to obtain points A and B - Open the compass from point B to point O and draw an arc to cut the circumference at points C and D O D C B - Do the same from point A and A the arc cuts the circumference at points E and F E F O D C B - Connect points A, F, C, B, D and E to A obtain the regular hexagon. -Also, note that the side of a hexagon is equal to the radius E F of the circumference in which it is inscribed. O D C B OCTAGON A - After the first steps common to all regular polygons we get four rect angles and points A,B,C,D D B O C A E F - Find the angle bisector of each angle.Those rects intersect the D B circumference at points E, F O G and H.

PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

Applying the Polygon Angle
POLYGONS 8.1.1 – 8.1.5 After studying triangles and quadrilaterals, students now extend their study to all polygons. A polygon is a closed, two-dimensional figure made of three or more non- intersecting straight line segments connected end-to-end. Using the fact that the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180°, students learn a method to determine the sum of the measures of the interior angles of any polygon. Next they explore the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon. Finally they use the information about the angles of polygons along with their Triangle Toolkits to find the areas of regular polygons. See the Math Notes boxes in Lessons 8.1.1, 8.1.5, and 8.3.1. Example 1 4x + 7 3x + 1 x + 1 The figure at right is a hexagon. What is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a hexagon? Explain how you know. Then write an equation and solve for x. 2x 3x – 5 5x – 4 One way to find the sum of the interior angles of the 9 hexagon is to divide the figure into triangles. There are 11 several different ways to do this, but keep in mind that we 8 are trying to add the interior angles at the vertices. One 6 12 way to divide the hexagon into triangles is to draw in all of 10 the diagonals from a single vertex, as shown at right. 7 Doing this forms four triangles, each with angle measures 5 4 3 1 summing to 180°.

Petrie Schemes
Canad. J. Math. Vol. 57 (4), 2005 pp. 844–870 Petrie Schemes Gordon Williams Abstract. Petrie polygons, especially as they arise in the study of regular polytopes and Coxeter groups, have been studied by geometers and group theorists since the early part of the twentieth century. An open question is the determination of which polyhedra possess Petrie polygons that are simple closed curves. The current work explores combinatorial structures in abstract polytopes, called Petrie schemes, that generalize the notion of a Petrie polygon. It is established that all of the regular convex polytopes and honeycombs in Euclidean spaces, as well as all of the Grunbaum–Dress¨ polyhedra, pos- sess Petrie schemes that are not self-intersecting and thus have Petrie polygons that are simple closed curves. Partial results are obtained for several other classes of less symmetric polytopes. 1 Introduction Historically, polyhedra have been conceived of either as closed surfaces (usually topo- logical spheres) made up of planar polygons joined edge to edge or as solids enclosed by such a surface. In recent times, mathematicians have considered polyhedra to be convex polytopes, simplicial spheres, or combinatorial structures such as abstract polytopes or incidence complexes. A Petrie polygon of a polyhedron is a sequence of edges of the polyhedron where any two consecutive elements of the sequence have a vertex and face in common, but no three consecutive edges share a commonface. For the regular polyhedra, the Petrie polygons form the equatorial skew polygons. Petrie polygons may be deﬁned analogously for polytopes as well. Petrie polygons have been very useful in the study of polyhedra and polytopes, especially regular polytopes.

Pentagon Fuel Use, Climate Change, and the Costs of War
Pentagon Fuel Use, Climate Change, and the Costs of War Neta C. Crawford1 Boston University Updated and Revised, 13 November 20192 Summary If climate change is a “threat multiplier,” as some national security experts and members of the military argue, how does the US military reduce climate change caused threats? Or does war and the preparation for it increase those risks? In its quest for security, the United States spends more on the military than any other country in the world, certainly much more than the combined military spending of its major rivals, Russia and China. Authorized at over $700 billion in Fiscal Year 2019, and with over $700 billion requested for FY2020, the Department of Defense (DOD) budget comprises more than half of all federal discretionary spending each year. With an armed force of more than two million people, 11 nuclear aircraft carriers, and the world’s most advanced military aircraft, the US is more than capable of projecting power anywhere in the globe, and with “Space Command,” into outer space. Further, the US has been continuously at war since late 2001, with the US military and State Department currently engaged in more than 80 countries in counterterror operations.3 All this capacity for and use of military force requires a great deal of energy, most of it in the form of fossil fuel. As General David Petraeus said in 2011, “Energy is the lifeblood of our warfighting capabilities.”4 Although the Pentagon has, in recent years, increasingly 1 Neta C.

Two-Dimensional Figures a Plane Is a Flat Surface That Extends Infinitely in All Directions
NAME CLASS DATE Two-Dimensional Figures A plane is a flat surface that extends infinitely in all directions. A parallelogram like the one below is often used to model a plane, but remember that a plane—unlike a parallelogram—has no boundaries or sides. A plane figure or two-dimensional figure is a figure that lies completely in one plane. When you draw, either by hand or with a computer program, you draw two-dimensional figures. Blueprints are two-dimensional models of real-life objects. Polygons are closed, two-dimensional figures formed by three or more line segments that intersect only at their endpoints. These figures are polygons. These figures are not polygons. This is not a polygon A heart is not a polygon A circle is not a polygon because it is an open because it is has curves. because it is made of figure. a curve. Polygons are named by the number of sides and angles they have. A polygon always has the same number of sides as angles. Listed on the next page are the most common polygons. Each of the polygons shown is a regular polygon. All the angles of a regular polygon have the same measure and all the sides are the same length.
