The regular dodecahedron is a polyhedron with twelve pentagonal faces, thirty edges, and twenty vertices. [1] It is one of the Platonic solids, a set of polyhedrons in which the faces are regular polygons that are congruent and the same number of faces meet at a vertex. [2]
[1] [3] Along with the rectangular cuboids, parallelepiped is a cuboid with six parallelogram. Rhombohedron is a cuboid with six rhombus faces. A square frustum is a frustum with a square base, but the rest of its faces are quadrilaterals; the square frustum is formed by truncating the apex of a square pyramid .
There are many relations among the uniform polyhedra. [1] [2] [3] Some are obtained by truncating the vertices of the regular or quasi-regular polyhedron.Others share the same vertices and edges as other polyhedron.
The convex regular dodecahedron also has three stellations, all of which are regular star dodecahedra.They form three of the four Kepler–Poinsot polyhedra.They are the small stellated dodecahedron {5/2, 5}, the great dodecahedron {5, 5/2}, and the great stellated dodecahedron {5/2, 3}.
The elements of the set correspond to the vertices, edges, faces and so on of the polytope: vertices have rank 0, edges rank 1, etc. with the partially ordered ranking corresponding to the dimensionality of the geometric elements. The empty set, required by set theory, has a rank of −1 and is sometimes said to correspond to the null polytope.
Because of its reversal, the Bilinski dodecahedron has a lower order of symmetry; its symmetry group is that of a rectangular cuboid: D 2h, [2,2], (*222), of order 8. This is a subgroup of octahedral symmetry; its elements are three 2-fold symmetry axes, three symmetry planes (which are also the axial planes of this solid), and a center of inversion symmetry.
The other coordinates can be obtained from vector addition [5] of the 3 direction vectors: e 1 + e 2, e 1 + e 3, e 2 + e 3, and e 1 + e 2 + e 3. The volume V {\displaystyle V} of a rhombohedron, in terms of its side length a {\displaystyle a} and its rhombic acute angle θ {\displaystyle \theta ~} , is a simplification of the volume of a ...
