In summary, the purpose of studying optimal road arrangement for towns connected by a polygon is to determine the most efficient and effective way to connect towns within a given geographical area. Factors that are typically considered include population size and distribution, topography and terrain, existing infrastructure, and desired goals. Various methods can be used to analyze and determine the optimal road arrangement, including mathematical modeling and input from town planners and stakeholders. Implementing an optimal road arrangement can lead to benefits such as improved transportation efficiency and economic growth, but there may also be challenges and limitations, such as budget constraints and unexpected changes in the area.

If the vertices of a regular polygon represent 4 townships and are all connected by a system of roads.

To keep costs to a minimum, what is the ideal arrangement of roads?

What if not a regular polygon but a quadrilateral, cube, regular solid?

Can someone help me please :uhh:

By definition, this only has four verticies. HINT: Polygons are two dimentional.
