The 600-cell is the fifth in the sequence of 6 convex regular 4-polytopes (in order of complexity and size at the same radius). [a] It can be deconstructed into twenty-five overlapping instances of its immediate predecessor the 24-cell, [5] as the 24-cell can be deconstructed into three overlapping instances of its predecessor the tesseract (8-cell), and the 8-cell can be deconstructed into ...

Fuller (1975) used these 6 great circles, along with 15 and 10 others in two other polyhedra to define his 31 great circles of the spherical icosahedron. [ 6 ] The long radius (center to vertex) of the icosidodecahedron is in the golden ratio to its edge length; thus its radius is φ if its edge length is 1, and its edge length is 1 / φ ...
If a plane intersects a solid (a 3-dimensional object), then the region common to the plane and the solid is called a cross-section of the solid. [1] A plane containing a cross-section of the solid may be referred to as a cutting plane. The shape of the cross-section of a solid may depend upon the orientation of the cutting plane to the solid.
The Császár polyhedron is a seven-vertex toroidal polyhedron with 21 edges and 14 triangular faces. [6] It and the tetrahedron are the only known polyhedra in which every possible line segment connecting two vertices forms an edge of the polyhedron. [7]
Net. In four-dimensional geometry, the 24-cell is the convex regular 4-polytope [1] (four-dimensional analogue of a Platonic solid) with Schläfli symbol {3,4,3}. It is also called C 24, or the icositetrachoron, [2] octaplex (short for "octahedral complex"), icosatetrahedroid, [3] octacube, hyper-diamond or polyoctahedron, being constructed of octahedral cells.
In geometry, a polyhedron (pl.: polyhedra or polyhedrons; from Greek πολύ (poly-) 'many' and ἕδρον (-hedron) 'base, seat') is a three-dimensional figure with flat polygonal faces, straight edges and sharp corners or vertices. The term "polyhedron" may refer either to a solid figure or to its boundary surface.
