The rhombic dodecahedron forms the maximal cross-section of a 24-cell, and also forms the hull of its vertex-first parallel projection into three dimensions. The rhombic dodecahedron can be decomposed into six congruent (but non-regular) square dipyramids meeting at a single vertex in the center; these form the images of six pairs of the 24 ...
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 ...

A regular dodecahedron or pentagonal dodecahedron [notes 1] is a dodecahedron composed of regular pentagonal faces, three meeting at each vertex. It is an example of Platonic solids , described as cosmic stellation by Plato in his dialogues, and it was used as part of Solar System proposed by Johannes Kepler .
Set of Catalan solids The rhombic dodecahedron's construction, the dual polyhedron of a cuboctahedron, by Dorman Luke construction. The Catalan solids are the dual polyhedron of Archimedean solids, a set of thirteen polyhedrons with highly symmetric forms semiregular polyhedrons in which two or more polygonal of their faces are met at a vertex.
