Origin:
The term "nonagon" first appeared in English in the early 17th century, derived from the Latin "nonagonum" (nine corners). The root words, ennea and gōnia, are derived from ancient Greek mathematics.
In ancient geometry, nonagons were considered a regular polygon, meaning that all sides and angles were equal. However, modern geometry defines a regular nonagon as one in which all sides are equal and all interior angles are equal to 140 degrees.
Nonagons have been used throughout history for various purposes, including:
