 #3 The Type C pentagon embodies the number 137

 

 137+137 geometrical elements surround centres of two Type C pentagons   206 yods in Type C pentagon symbolise 206 bones in human skeleton 

Table 9 of Article 65 shows that the number of yods in the nth-order m-gon ≡ Yn(m) = 1 + 3m(1+3n)/2 and that the number of geometrical elements ≡ Gn(m) = 1 + m(1+3n), where "1" denotes its centre. The Type C pentagon (n = 3, m = 5) has Y3(5) = 211 yods and G3(5) = 141 points, lines & triangles. This means that it has 206 yods other than pentagonal corners and 137 geometrical elements outside one side surround its centre, i.e., two joined Type C pentagons have 138 geometrical elements outside the root edge in each one. The 206 yods symbolise the 206 bones in the adult human skeleton. As the next page shows, the division 138 = 1 + 137 manifests in the Tetrahedral Lambda — the 3-dimensional generalisation of the so-called "Plato's Lambda" that formed the basis of Plato's cosmology.
