Equal charges \(Q\) are placed on corners of a regular polygon. Show that the electric field at the center of polygon is zero.  

This problem is easy to solve by summing over electric field due to individual charges and using trigonometric identities, or something equivalent.
 
The challenge is to find simpler  solution  without writing any  expressions, or equations, without using any complicated identities. Simply  sketch a diagram to indicate a proof for a regular pentagon.
