Measurements & ratios 6
Each length divided by the reference length gives a ratio r. These ratios become frequencies in the next step.
| Measurement | Length | Ratio r |
|---|---|---|
| |P22P24| | 0.3214 | 1.0000 |
| |C3C4| | 0.5000 | 1.5557 |
| |P14P16| | 0.6428 | 2.0000 |
| |C3C5| | 0.8660 | 2.6946 |
| |C0C3| | 1.0000 | 3.1114 |
| |P5P7| | 1.2856 | 4.0000 |
Mathematical details
Your configuration: k iterations of n-point star polygons {n/step} with halving radius, plus c circles of radius R/2 around the centre.
Symmetry: Dihedral Dn (by construction).
