Other than rhombic triacontahedron, it is one of two Catalan solids that have the property of edge-transitive; the other convex polyhedron classes being the five Platonic solids and the other two Archimedean solids: its dual polyhedron and icosidodecahedron. Denoting by a the edge length of a rhombic dodecahedron,
The outer protein shell of HIV is enclosed in a regular icosahedron, as is the head of a typical myovirus. [26] Several species of radiolarians discovered by Ernst Haeckel , described its shells as the like-shaped various regular polyhedra; one of which is Circogonia icosahedra , whose skeleton is shaped like a regular icosahedron.
