Small icosihemidodecahedronIn geometry, the small icosihemidodecahedron (or small icosahemidodecahedron) is a uniform star polyhedron, indexed as U_49. It has 26 faces (20 triangles and 6 decagons), 60 edges, and 30 vertices. Its vertex figure alternates two regular triangles and decagons as a crossed quadrilateral. It is a hemipolyhedron with its six decagonal faces passing through the model center. It is given a Wythoff symbol, 3 5, but that construction represents a double covering of this model.
OctahemioctahedronIn geometry, the octahemioctahedron or allelotetratetrahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U_3. It has 12 faces (8 triangles and 4 hexagons), 24 edges and 12 vertices. Its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral. It is one of nine hemipolyhedra, with 4 hexagonal faces passing through the model center. It is the only hemipolyhedron that is orientable, and the only uniform polyhedron with an Euler characteristic of zero (a topological torus).
Great icosidodecahedronIn geometry, the great icosidodecahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U54. It has 32 faces (20 triangles and 12 pentagrams), 60 edges, and 30 vertices. It is given a Schläfli symbol r{3,}. It is the rectification of the great stellated dodecahedron and the great icosahedron. It was discovered independently by , and . The figure is a rectification of the great icosahedron or the great stellated dodecahedron, much as the (small) icosidodecahedron is related to the (small) icosahedron and (small) dodecahedron, and the cuboctahedron to the cube and octahedron.
Rectification (geometry)In Euclidean geometry, rectification, also known as critical truncation or complete-truncation, is the process of truncating a polytope by marking the midpoints of all its edges, and cutting off its vertices at those points. The resulting polytope will be bounded by vertex figure facets and the rectified facets of the original polytope. A rectification operator is sometimes denoted by the letter r with a Schläfli symbol. For example, r{4,3} is the rectified cube, also called a cuboctahedron, and also represented as .
ApeirogonIn geometry, an apeirogon () or infinite polygon is a polygon with an infinite number of sides. Apeirogons are the two-dimensional case of infinite polytopes. In some literature, the term "apeirogon" may refer only to the regular apeirogon, with an infinite dihedral group of symmetries. Given a point A0 in a Euclidean space and a translation S, define the point Ai to be the point obtained from i applications of the translation S to A0, so Ai = Si(A0).
TetrahemihexahedronIn geometry, the tetrahemihexahedron or hemicuboctahedron is a uniform star polyhedron, indexed as U4. It has 7 faces (4 triangles and 3 squares), 12 edges, and 6 vertices. Its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral. Its Coxeter–Dynkin diagram is (although this is a double covering of the tetrahemihexahedron). It is the only non-prismatic uniform polyhedron with an odd number of faces. Its Wythoff symbol is 3/2 3 | 2, but that represents a double covering of the tetrahemihexahedron with eight triangles and six squares, paired and coinciding in space.
CubohemioctahedronIn geometry, the cubohemioctahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U15. It has 10 faces (6 squares and 4 regular hexagons), 24 edges and 12 vertices. Its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral. It is given Wythoff symbol 4 | 3, although that is a double-covering of this figure. A nonconvex polyhedron has intersecting faces which do not represent new edges or faces. In the picture vertices are marked by golden spheres, and edges by silver cylinders. It is a hemipolyhedron with 4 hexagonal faces passing through the model center.
Rhombic triacontahedronIn geometry, the rhombic triacontahedron, sometimes simply called the triacontahedron as it is the most common thirty-faced polyhedron, is a convex polyhedron with 30 rhombic faces. It has 60 edges and 32 vertices of two types. It is a Catalan solid, and the dual polyhedron of the icosidodecahedron. It is a zonohedron. The ratio of the long diagonal to the short diagonal of each face is exactly equal to the golden ratio, φ, so that the acute angles on each face measure 2 tan^−1(1/φ) = tan^−1(2), or approximately 63.
Ditrigonal dodecadodecahedronIn geometry, the ditrigonal dodecadodecahedron (or ditrigonary dodecadodecahedron) is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U41. It has 24 faces (12 pentagons and 12 pentagrams), 60 edges, and 20 vertices. It has extended Schläfli symbol b{5,}, as a blended great dodecahedron, and Coxeter diagram . It has 4 Schwarz triangle equivalent constructions, for example Wythoff symbol 3 | 5, and Coxeter diagram . Its convex hull is a regular dodecahedron.
Great icosihemidodecahedronIn geometry, the great icosihemidodecahedron (or great icosahemidodecahedron) is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U71. It has 26 faces (20 triangles and 6 decagrams), 60 edges, and 30 vertices. Its vertex figure is a crossed quadrilateral. It is a hemipolyhedron with 6 decagrammic faces passing through the model center. Its convex hull is the icosidodecahedron. It also shares its edge arrangement with the great icosidodecahedron (having the triangular faces in common), and with the great dodecahemidodecahedron (having the decagrammic faces in common).
