Display panel and liquid crystal display apparatus including the same

A display panel comprising:

• a substrate;
• a plurality of second signal lines disposed on the substrate;
• a plurality of second signal lines insulatingly crossing the first signal lines;
• and
• a plurality of pixel electrodes each connected to one of the plurality of first signal lines and one of the plurality of second signal lines,
• wherein a pixel electrode of the plurality of pixel electrodes comprises:
• a pair of first primary edges substantially parallel to the first signal lines and facing each other;
• and
• a pair of second primary edges connected to the first primary edges and facing each other and comprises a plurality of protrusions each having a sawteeth shape with slanted edges with respect to the first primary edges,
• wherein the slanted edges of the protrusion comprises a first edge and a second edge not parallel to each other, both the first edge and second edge forming an angle less than 90 degree with the first primary edges and being slanted in a same direction with respect to the first primary edges, and
• wherein the second primary edge further comprises a third edge connecting two neighboring protrusions of the plurality of protrusions, the third edge being substantially parallel to the second signal lines.
