The moment of inertia of a plane lamina about any axis not in this plane can be easily calculated if the moments of inertia about two mutually perpendicular axes in the plane are known. Then one can conclude that the moments of inertia of regular polygons and polyhedra have symmetry about a line or point, respectively, about their centres of mass. Furthermore, the moment of inertia about the apex of a right pyramid with a regular polygon base is dependent only on the angle the axis makes with the altitude. From this last statement, the calculation of the centre of mass moments of inertia of polyhedra becomes very easy.

Using Kauffman's model of flat knotted ribbons, we demonstrate how all regular polygons of at least seven sides can be realized by ribbon constructions of torus knots. We calculate length to width ratios for these constructions thereby bounding the Ribbonlength of the knots. In particular, we give evidence that the closed (respectively, truncation) Ribbonlength of a (q + 1,q) torus knot is (2q + 1) cot (π/(2q + 1)) (respectively, 2q cot (π/(2q + 1))). Using these calculations, we provide the bounds c1 ≤ 2/π and c2 ≥ 5/3 cot π/5 for the constants c1 and c2 that relate Ribbonlength R(K) and crossing number C(K) in a conjecture of Kusner: c1 C(K) ≤ R(K) ≤ c2 C(K).

The study of dihedral f-tilings of the Euclidean sphere $S^2$ by triangles and $r$-sided regular polygons was initiated in 2004 where the case $r=4$ was considered [5]. In a subsequent paper [1], the study of all spherical f-tilings by triangles and $r$-sided regular polygons, for any $r\ge 5$, was described. Later on, in [3], the classification of all f-tilings of $S^2$ whose prototiles are an equilateral triangle and an isosceles triangle is obtained. The algebraic and combinatorial description of spherical f-tilings by equilateral triangles and scalene triangles of angles $\beta$, $\gamma$ and $\delta$ $(\beta>\gamma>\delta)$ whose edge adjacency is performed by the side opposite to $\beta$ was done in [4]. In this paper we extend these results considering the edge adjacency performed by the side opposite to $\delta$.

We say that a monic polynomial with integer coefficients is a polygomial if its each zero is obtained by squaring the edge or a diagonal of a regular n-gon with unit circumradius. We find connections of certain polygomials with Morgan-Voyce polynomials and further with Chebyshev polynomials of second kind.
