About 'Where is the Pentagon?'
I know some people has no idea
where is the Pentagon. Notice: not '
pentagon'; '
Pentagon'. Capital letter 'p'.
If you think about the pentagon -- it's (in geometry, of course) a kind of polygon. Its name comes from the Greek words 'πέντε' (pente) and 'γωνία' (gonia), meaning 'five' ('5') and 'angle'). It is any five-sided polygon (or 5-gon). And the sum of the internal angles in a simple pentagon is 540°. (Source:
