The [[Dual polygon|dual]] of an isogonal polygon is an [[isotoxal polygon]]. Some even-sided polygons and [[apeirogon]]s which alternate two edge lengths, for example a [[rectangle]], are ''isogonal''. All planar isogonal 2''n''-gons have [[dihedral symmetry]] (D<sub>''n''</sub>, ''n'' = 2, 3, ...) with reflection lines across the mid-edge points. {| class=wikitable width=560 !D<sub>2</sub> !D<sub>3</sub> !D<sub>4</sub> !D<sub>7</sub> |- |[[File:Crossed rectangles.png|200px]]<BR>Isogonal [[rectangle]]s and [[crossed rectangle]]s sharing the same [[vertex arrangement]] |[[File:Regular truncation 3 0.75.svg|120px]]<BR>Isogonal [[hexagram#Other hexagrams|hexagram]] with 6 identical vertices and 2 edge lengths.<ref>Coxeter, The Densities of the Regular Polytopes II, p54-55, "hexagram" vertex figure of h{5/2,5}.</ref> |[[File:Vertex-transitive-octagon.svg|140px]]<BR>Isogonal convex [[octagon]] with blue and red radial lines of reflection |[[File:Regular polygon truncation 7 3.svg|150px]]<BR>Isogonal "star" [[tetradecagon]] with one vertex type, and two edge types<ref>''The Lighter Side of Mathematics: Proceedings of the Eugène Strens Memorial Conference on Recreational Mathematics and its History'', (1994), ''Metamorphoses of polygons'', [[Branko Grünbaum]], Figure 1.
