The regular dodecahedron can be interpreted as a truncated trapezohedron. It is the set of polyhedrons that can be constructed by truncating the two axial vertices of a trapezohedron. Here, the regular dodecahedron is constructed by truncating the pentagonal trapezohedron. The regular dodecahedron can be interpreted as the Goldberg polyhedron ...
The concave equilateral dodecahedron, called an endo-dodecahedron. [clarification needed] A cube can be divided into a pyritohedron by bisecting all the edges, and faces in alternate directions. A regular dodecahedron is an intermediate case with equal edge lengths. A rhombic dodecahedron is a degenerate case with the 6 crossedges reduced to ...
Let be the golden ratio.The 12 points given by (,,) and cyclic permutations of these coordinates are the vertices of a regular icosahedron.Its dual regular dodecahedron, whose edges intersect those of the icosahedron at right angles, has as vertices the points (,,) together with the points (, /,) and cyclic permutations of these coordinates.
In 4-dimensional geometry, the dodecahedral bipyramid is the direct sum of a dodecahedron and a segment, {5,3} + { }. Each face of a central dodecahedron is attached with two pentagonal pyramids, creating 24 pentagonal pyramidal cells, 72 isosceles triangular faces, 70 edges, and 22 vertices.
In geometry, the rhombic dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 12 congruent rhombic faces. It has 24 edges, and 14 vertices of 2 types. As a Catalan solid, it is the dual polyhedron of the cuboctahedron. As a parallelohedron, the rhombic dodecahedron can be used to tesselate its copies in space creating a rhombic dodecahedral honeycomb.
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a rhombicosidodecahedral graph is the graph of vertices and edges of the rhombicosidodecahedron, one of the Archimedean solids. It has 60 vertices and 120 edges, and is a quartic graph Archimedean graph. [5] Square centered Schlegel diagram
Dodecahedrane is a chemical compound, a hydrocarbon with formula C 20 H 20, whose carbon atoms are arranged as the vertices (corners) of a regular dodecahedron. Each carbon is bound to three neighbouring carbon atoms and to a hydrogen atom. This compound is one of the three possible Platonic hydrocarbons, the other two being cubane and ...
The symbols of the icosian calculus correspond to moves between vertices on a dodecahedron. (Hamilton originally thought in terms of moves between the faces of an icosahedron, which is equivalent by duality. This is the origin of the name "icosian". [3])
