Peter Karpov created quite a few interesting math graphs using Mathematica. One of them caught my attention because I think it can be done in Tableau: Polygon circumscribing from triangle to square to many equal-sided polygons.

Here I created it in tableau.
The data set is the same 2-row seed table. With parameters, we can create as many nesting layers of n-gons (n=3,4,5,...) as we wish, because we can create data using data densification on the fly. The graph above is created using polygon as data marks.

Below are a few renditions of the same graph. Click here to access to viz.
