Based on the connection between the Ising model and a correlated percolation model, we calculate the distribution function for the fraction (c) of lattice sites in percolating clusters in subgraphs with n percolating clusters, f(n)(c), and the distribution function for magnetization (m) in subgraphs with n percolating clusters, p(n)(m). We find that f(n)(c) and p(n)(m) have very good finite-size scaling behavior and that they have universal finite-size scaling functions for the model on square, plane triangular, and honeycomb lattices when aspect ratios of these lattices have the proportions 1:square root[3]/2:square root[3]. The complex structure of the magnetization distribution function p(m) for the system with large aspect ratio could be understood from the independent orientations of two or more percolation clusters in such a system.

The 3-12 (or extended kagom\'e) lattice is a three-coordinated irregular planar lattice having physical applications. Viewing its sites as the decoration sites of a doubly decorated honeycomb lattice, one proves via local star-triangle and double decoration-decimation transformations that 3-12 Ising correlations can be conveniently represented as linear combinations of honeycomb Ising correlations. Existent knowledge of all honeycomb Ising correlations upon a select (spatially compact) 10-site cluster is thus sufficient to determine all 3-12 Ising correlations upon an associated 18-site cluster. The total number of 3-12 Ising correlations defined upon this 18-site cluster is exceedingly large, but their actual count is less significant than the realization that each can now be found in a systematic and efficient fashion. Examples of resulting exact solutions for both even- and odd-number multisite correlations of the 3-12 Ising ferromagnet are presented at all temperatures. A simple scaling relationship is established between the asymptotic forms of the pair correlation in the 3-12 and honeycomb Ising models. Besides providing relatively direct derivations (no explicit magnetic fields or field derivatives) for the spontaneous magnetization and internal energy of the 3-12 Ising model, the mapping methods may be repeated recursively to secure Ising multisite correlations upon various other irregular planar lattices.
