## Description
<section id='description'>
<!-- TODO Use MathJax and re-write from projecteuler.net -->
Let Sn be the regular n-sided polygon or shape whose vertices
vk (k=1,2,…,n) have coordinates:
xk = cos( 2k-1/n ×180°)
yk  = sin( 2k-1/n ×180°)
Each Sn is to be interpreted as a filled shape consisting of all points on the perimeter and in the interior.
The Minkowski sum, S+T, of two shapes S and T is the result of
adding every point in S to every point in T, where point addition is performed coordinate-wise:
(u,v) + (x,y) = (u+x,v+y).
For example, the sum of S3 and S4 is the six-sided shape shown in pink below:
How many sides does S1864+S1865+ … +S1909 have?
