who knows fourteen?


(the echud me yodea - who knows one - song is over, now we are on our own...)

14 are the parts to the pesach seder (the song may have finished but we haven't left the seder)

&

chapters in Rambam's Mishna Torah
date in Adar of Purim
date in Nissan of the fast of the first-born
no. of days (& nights) in a fortnight
pounds in a stone
lines in a sonnet
encoded within Bach's music
and the number of stations of the cross

a 14 sided polygon is called a Tetradecagon or Tetrakaidecagon. and I am wondering just how many more polygons I can draw in this size before it basically becomes a filled in circle.

(apologise for the image quality - had to use phone to take this pic. will scan it in properly tomorrow)
