The length of the Jordanian flag is twice as long as its width, and it is divided into three equal stripes. The top one is black, the middle one is white, and the bottom one is green. On the left side of the flag is a red triangle with a base equal to the width of the flag and a height equal to half its length. In the middle of the triangle is a white, seven-pointed star with an area that can accommodate a circle with a diameter of one-fourteenth the flag's length. The star is positioned so that its center is at the intersection of the lines between the triangle's corners, and so that the axis passing through one of the vertices is parallel to the base of the triangle.
