	hendecagon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The curve is also named undecagon or unidecagon.
		The hendecagon name is to be preferred, because the parts of the word are all Greek, and not mixed Greek/Latin.
		The regular hendecagon is the regular polygon with eleven sides.

		He converted the hendecagon to a rectangle in 10 pieces and then applied a P-slide.
		But in August 2000 this was topped by Gavin Theobald, who found a remarkable 13-piece dissection of a hendecagon to a square.
		Here is an improvement for the hendecagon, and I have just found an 11 piece dissection of the pentadecagon, although it needs verifying.

	Hendecagon
		I need an example of a object that is in the shape of a hendecagon.
		I know what the shape is but I cannot come up with a real life example of an object that is this shape.
		Canada uses an 11-sided dollar (the loony), but the sides are rounded so that technically, it is not a polygon even though its vertices are those of a regular 11-gon (hendecagon).

	H: Illustrated Math Dictionary - Enchanted Learning.com
		A hendecagon is an eleven-sided figure (undecagon is another word for this figure).
		The Canadian one dollar coin (also called the loonie) is a regular hendecagon.
		A hexaflexagon is a folded geometric figure that can be "flexed" to expose its many sides.

	Undecagon Definition - Math Open Reference
		Some say that the word undecagon is incorrect because it is derived from Latin (una - "one") whereas most polygon names are Greek in origin.
		By that rule it would be called a hendecagon instead.
		As always, to avoid confusion simply call it an 11-gon.

		The term UNCONDITIONAL CONVERGENCE (of a continued fraction) was coined by Alfred Pringsheim (1850-1941).
		Earlier terms for an 11-sided polygon, hendecagon and endecagon, are found in English in 1704 in Lexicon technicum, or an universal English dictionary of arts and sciences, by John Harris (OED2).
		Undecagon is found in English in 1728 in Chambers' Cyclopedia.

		The piece itself was supposed to have looked and felt different from other change.
		Instead, it seemed like a quarter with that funny hendecagon (an 11-sided polygon) on its face.
		As for the great suffragist it honored, well, more than a few wags joked about her striking resemblance to George Washington.

	History, scientific terms, nomenclature, etc. - Numericana
		These are macaronic terms (namely, terms built from a mixture of different languages, like Greek and Latin) and they should be avoided.
		Unfortunately, the term "undecagon" seems to be used almost as often as "hendecagon" to describe an 11-sided polygon (the very questionable spelling "endecagon" is, mercifully, a very distant third).
		decagon (10), hendecagon (11; avoid "undecagon"), dodecagon (12; avoid "duodecagon"), triskaidecagon or tridecagon (13), tetrakaidecagon or tetradecagon (14; avoid "quadridecagon"), pentakaidecagon or pentadecagon (15; avoid "quindecagon"), hexakaidecagon or hexadecagon (16), heptakaidecagon or heptadecagon (17; avoid "septadecagon"), octakaidecagon or octadecagon (18), enneakaidecagon or enneadecagon (19; avoid "nonadecagon"),

		PQ is a test of your practical intelligence.
		That is, your ability to solve real-world problems rather than calculate the surface area of a hendecagon, or something.
		METHOD TO THE MADNESS: PQ does a clever job of using gamelike puzzles to take your intellectual pulse, but the conundrums get a little monotonous after a while.

		- 16 polygons shapes and the name of the polygon (Pentagon, Hexagon, Octagon, Nonagon, Decagon, Hendecagon, and Dodecagon)
		-Repeat the procedure for the remaining 5 shapes (Hexagon, Octagon, Nonagon, Decagon, Hendecagon, and Dodecagon).
		Take shapes off the board, and shuffle them.

	People: B. Gee, I think I like some of your answers better than mine. Is it too late to change?
		Then I decided I needed to be trickier and went looking for polygon/polyhedra names.
		Apparently the purists deride macaronic mathematical terms that mix Greek and Latin roots, like nonagon, undecagon, duodecagon ("properly" enneagon, hendecagon, dodecagon).
		And they'd like to let bigons be digons.
