Abstract
Read how the same simple relationship connects the side and diagonals of a regular heptagon and prove this using the triple angle identities from trigonometry. Then prove the same result using the little known Ptolemy’s theorem. And finally learn how to generate these lesser known triads -Primitive Harmonic Triples.
