V(3.4. 3 / 2 .4) π − π / 2 90° Hexahemioctacron (Dual of cubohemioctahedron) — V(4.6. 4 / 3 .6) π − π / 3 120° Octahemioctacron (Dual of octahemioctahedron) — V(3.6. 3 / 2 .6) π − π / 3 120° Small dodecahemidodecacron (Dual of small dodecahemidodecacron) — V(5.10. 5 / 4 ...
This fact can be used to calculate the dihedral angles themselves for a regular or edge-symmetric ideal polyhedron (in which all these angles are equal), by counting how many edges meet at each vertex: an ideal regular tetrahedron, cube or dodecahedron, with three edges per vertex, has dihedral angles = / = (), an ideal regular octahedron or ...
Colored regions are cross-sections of the solid cone. Their boundaries (in black) are the named plane sections. A cross section of a polyhedron is a polygon. The conic sections – circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas – are plane sections of a cone with the cutting planes at various different angles, as seen in the diagram at left.
They are not necessarily mirror-symmetric; e.g. GP(5,3) and GP(3,5) are enantiomorphs of each other. A Goldberg polyhedron is a dual polyhedron of a geodesic polyhedron. A consequence of Euler's polyhedron formula is that a Goldberg polyhedron always has exactly 12 pentagonal faces.
Let φ be the golden ratio.The 12 points given by (0, ±1, ±φ) 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 8 points (±1, ±1, ±1) together with the 12 points (0, ±φ, ± 1 / φ ) and cyclic permutations of these coordinates.
A tetradecahedron is a polyhedron with 14 faces. There are numerous topologically distinct forms of a tetradecahedron, with many constructible entirely with regular polygon faces. A tetradecahedron is sometimes called a tetrakaidecahedron. [1] [2] No difference in meaning is ascribed. [3] [4] The Greek word kai means 'and'.
An antiparallelogram is a special case of a crossed quadrilateral, with two pairs of equal-length edges. [3] In general, crossed quadrilaterals can have unequal edges. [ 3 ] Special forms of the antiparallelogram are the crossed rectangles and crossed squares, obtained by replacing two opposite sides of a rectangle or square by the two diagonals.
There are 96,262,938 topologically distinct convex tridecahedra, excluding mirror images, having at least 9 vertices. [2] ( Two polyhedra are "topologically distinct" if they have intrinsically different arrangements of faces and vertices, such that it is impossible to distort one into the other simply by changing the lengths of edges or the angles between edges or faces.)
