| Normal maps are used to give additional geometric detail without increasing polygon count. |
| A solution to that was to use analytic form factors between a point and a polygon. |
| For a polygon of n sides, there are n possible apothems, all the same length of course. |
| One solution is to plate the aluminum polygon with electroless nickel and then polish the nickel surface. |
| In a regular polygon, we have an apothem, a number and a length of sides which do not belong to the base class shape. |
| All of the courses are modeled in the same manner, shaving off a polygon here and there to save on system resources. |
