# Element RegularPolygon

JXG.GeometryElement
↳ JXG.Polygon
↳ Polygon
↳ RegularPolygon

A regular polygon is a polygon that is direct equiangular (all angles are equal in measure) and equilateral (all sides have the same length). It needs two points which define the base line and the number of vertices.
Defined in: polygon.js.
Extends Polygon.

Element Detail
RegularPolygon
Constructs a regular polygon. It needs two points which define the base line and the number of vertices, or a set of points.

This element has no direct constructor. To create an instance of this element you have to call JXG.Board#create with type "regularpolygon".
Possible parent array combinations are:
{JXG.Point} p1
{JXG.Point} p2
{Number} n
  The constructed regular polygon has n vertices and the base line defined by p1 and p2.

Throws:
{Exception}
  If the element cannot be constructed with the given parent objects an exception is thrown.

Examples:

    var p1 = board.create('point', [0.0, 2.0]);
    var p2 = board.create('point', [2.0, 1.0]);

    var pol = board.create('regularpolygon', [p1, p2, 5]);

    var p1 = board.create('point', [0.0, 2.0]);
    var p2 = board.create('point', [4.0,4.0]);
    var p3 = board.create('point', [2.0,0.0]);

    var pol = board.create('regularpolygon', [p1, p2, p3]);

            // Line of reflection
            var li = board.create('line', [1,1,1], {strokeColor: '#aaaaaa'});
            var reflect = board.create('transform', [li], {type: 'reflect'});
            var pol1 = board.create('polygon', [[-3,-2], [-1,-4], [-2,-0.5]]);
            var pol2 = board.create('polygon', [pol1, reflect]);

Attribute Detail
{Line} borders
Attributes for the polygon border lines.
Defined in: options.js.

{Boolean} hasInnerPoints
If `true`, moving the mouse over inner points triggers hasPoint.
Defined in: options.js.

See:
  JXG.GeometryElement#hasPoint

Default Value:
  false

{Label} label
Attributes for the polygon label.
Defined in: options.js.

{Point} vertices
Attributes for the polygon vertices.
Defined in: options.js.

{Boolean} withLines
Is the polygon bordered by lines?
Defined in: options.js.

Default Value:
  true
