  2. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(geometry)

    In analogy with the cross-section of a solid, the cross-section of an n-dimensional body in an n-dimensional space is the non-empty intersection of the body with a hyperplane (an (n − 1)-dimensional subspace). This concept has sometimes been used to help visualize aspects of higher dimensional spaces. [7]

  3. Icosidodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icosidodecahedron

    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 ...

  4. Ten-of-diamonds decahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten-of-diamonds_decahedron

    The ten-of-diamonds can be dissected in an octagonal cross-section between the two rhombic faces. It is a decahedron with 12 vertices, 20 edges, and 10 faces (4 triangles, 4 trapezoids, 1 rhombus, and 1 isotoxal octagon). Michael Goldberg labels this polyhedron 10-XXV, the 25th in a list of space-filling decahedra. [2]

  5. List of uniform polyhedra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_uniform_polyhedra

    In geometry, a uniform polyhedron is a polyhedron which has regular polygons as faces and is vertex-transitive (transitive on its vertices, ... +12{10}+1210 / 3 ...

  6. Rhombic dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombic_dodecahedron

    The diagonal of a matrix denotes the number of each element that appears in a polyhedron, whereas the non-diagonal of a matrix denotes the number of the column's elements that occur in or at the row's element. The rhombic dodecahedron has vertex classes with 8+6, 1 edge class of 24, and 1 face class of 12; each element in a matrix's diagonal.

  7. Hendecagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hendecagon

    Since 11 is a prime number there is one subgroup with dihedral symmetry: Dih 1, and 2 cyclic group symmetries: Z 11, and Z 1. These 4 symmetries can be seen in 4 distinct symmetries on the hendecagon. John Conway labels these by a letter and group order. [11] Full symmetry of the regular form is r22 and no symmetry is labeled a1.

  8. Pentagonal trapezohedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_trapezohedron

    Ten ten-sided dice. The pentagonal trapezohedron was patented for use as a gaming die (i.e. "game apparatus") in 1906. [1] These dice are used for role-playing games that use percentile-based skills; however, a twenty-sided die can be labeled with the numbers 0-9 twice to use for percentages instead.

  9. Polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhedron

    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.
