  Decagon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In geometry, a decagon is any polygon with ten sides and ten angles, and usually refers to a regular decagon, having all sides of equal length and all angles equal to 144°.
A regular decagon is constructible with a straightedge and compass.
The remaining five corners of the decagon are those points where the lines of step 2 cross the original circle (but not a pentagon corner).

 Math Forum - Ask Dr. Math
To construct a regular decagon, draw line segments from the center O of the pentagon to two consecutive vertices A and B and bisect the angle AOB.
The method to construct a regular decagon (n = 10) is to construct a regular pentagon (n = 5) inscribed in a circle, and then construct the perpendicular bisectors of the five sides (these are also the bisectors of the five angles).
The ten points where the five bisectors intersect the circle are the ten vertices of the decagon.

 Quasicrystals and Quasi-Unit Cell Paradigm
In the new paradigm, the atomic structure of the decagonal phase is determined entirely by the atom decoration of the overlapping decagon tiles.
The decagon tiles represent decagonal cluster columns in the three-dimensional quasicrystals structure.
The reduction of a Penrose tiling or decagonal phase to a single-repeating cluster is a remarkable simplification.

Each side will be placed at an angle that results in a lowering, from one end to the other, of.5, sqrt(3)/2 or 1 times its own length.
In fact the sequence of multipliers, on one side of the decagon, of the sides' lengths will be.5, sqrt(3)/2, 1, sqrt(3/2),.5, but with one missing, after the sole 120-degree angle on that side of the decagon.
Similar considerations apply for the rational values of.5, 1 and the other.5 one either side.
