The small hendecagram is a non-convex polygon with 11 sides. It's created by taking the first stellation of a hendecagon. A regular small hendecagram has equal sides and equal angles.

It is one of four regular 11-sided star polygons, the other three being the hendecagram, the great hendecagram, and the grand hendecagram.

Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]

Coordinates for a small hendecagram of edge length 2sin(2π/11), centered at the origin, are:

  • (1, 0),
  • (cos(2π/11), \pmsin(2π/11)),
  • (cos(4π/11), \pmsin(4π/11)),
  • (cos(6π/11), \pmsin(6π/11)),
  • (cos(8π/11), \pmsin(8π/11)),
  • (cos(10π/11), \pmsin(10π/11)).
