Determining if a set of hexagons on a grid can tile the plane That is correct, only translations, and no rotations. Not only that, but the overall tiling should be periodic. |

Find displacement of vertices of a prism (polyhedron) The centroids $q_c$ and $p_c$ are simply the averages of the set of points you're considering. So if you're using just 3 points, it's going to be the average of those three points, not the centroid of the prism itself. |

Segmented area between circles @Henning Makholm: You are indeed correct; I made a number of mistakes. I have correct them now. |

Segmented area between circles No. The plot clearly shows that it crosses over the area of $A_{12}$. Mathematica says this happens around $R=9.23574$. |

Find displacement of vertices of a prism (polyhedron) Your blocks are 12-sided prisms? What shapes are the cross sections? Are the displacements associated just with the block itself, or is there a unique displacement for each vertex? |

Segmented area between circles I should just like to add that numerically evaluating the areas is extremely simple as the sum of circular segments, and can even be done in a numerically robust way when the segments are thin slivers. For C code, see the function CircularSectorArea in this file |

Find $DF$ in a triangle $DEF$ No. The scale of the triangle DEF is scaled by a factor u, whereas the radius of the big circle is 14 (absolutely). |
