átlónál

The Hungarian word "átlónál" translates to "diagonal" in English. It refers to a line segment or direction that connects two non-adjacent vertices of a polygon or two opposite vertices of a polyhedron. In simpler terms, it's a line that crosses from one corner to another, but not along the edges.

In geometry, diagonals are important for understanding the properties of shapes. For instance, a square has two diagonals of equal length. A rectangle also has two diagonals that bisect each other. A pentagon has five diagonals, and the number of diagonals in a polygon with n sides can be calculated using the formula n(n-3)/2.

The concept of "átlónál" also extends to three-dimensional shapes. A polyhedron has both face diagonals (diagonals on its faces) and space diagonals (diagonals that pass through the interior of the polyhedron). For a cube, all space diagonals are equal in length. The term is used in various fields, including mathematics, engineering, and computer graphics, to describe lines or movements that are not parallel or perpendicular to the primary axes of a system.
