In geometry, the snub disphenoid is a convex polyhedron with 12 equilateral triangles as its faces. It is an example of deltahedron and Johnson solid. It can be constructed in different approaches. This shape is also called Siamese dodecahedron, triangular dodecahedron, trigonal dodecahedron, or dodecadeltahedron.
For example, the icosahedron is {3,5+} 1,0, and pentakis dodecahedron, {3,5+} 1,1 is seen as a regular dodecahedron with pentagonal faces divided into 5 triangles. The primary face of the subdivision is called a principal polyhedral triangle (PPT) or the breakdown structure. Calculating a single PPT allows the entire figure to be created.
Pentagonal pyramids are added to the 12 pentagonal faces of the snub dodecahedron, and triangular pyramids are added to the 20 triangular faces that do not share an edge with a pentagon. The pyramid heights are adjusted to make them coplanar with the other 60 triangular faces of the snub dodecahedron. The result is the pentagonal ...
In geometry, the Rhombicosidodecahedron is an Archimedean solid, one of thirteen convex isogonal nonprismatic solids constructed of two or more types of regular polygon faces. It has a total of 62 faces: 20 regular triangular faces, 30 square faces, 12 regular pentagonal faces, with 60 vertices, and 120 edges.
A dodecagonal pyramid is a pyramid with a dodecagonal base. It is a type of tridecahedron, which has 13 faces , 24 edges , and 13 vertices , and its dual polyhedron is itself. [ 5 ] A regular dodecagonal pyramid is a dodecagonal pyramid whose base is a regular dodecagon.
It can be seen as a dodecahedron with three pentagonal pyramids (J 2) attached to nonadjacent faces. When pyramids are attached to a dodecahedron in other ways, they may result in an augmented dodecahedron ( J 58 ), a parabiaugmented dodecahedron ( J 59 ), a metabiaugmented dodecahedron ( J 60 ), or even a pentakis dodecahedron if the faces are ...
The mensuration of polyhedra includes the surface area and volume. An area is a two-dimensional measurement calculated by the product of length and width; for a polyhedron, the surface area is the sum of the areas of all of its faces. [12] A volume is a measurement of a region in three-dimensional space. [13]
[19] [20] Examples are square pyramid and pentagonal pyramid, a four- and five-triangular faces pyramid with a square and pentagon base, respectively; they are classified as the first and second Johnson solid if their regular faces and edges that are equal in length, and their symmetries are C 4v of order 8 and C 5v of order 10, respectively.
