An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

In Euclidean geometry, a henagon is usually considered to be an impossible object, because its single edge would extend to infinity. However, in spherical geometry a finite henagon can be drawn by placing a single vertex anywhere on a great circle. Two henagons can be used to construct a dihedron on a sphere, with Schläfli symbol, {1,2}.
