Excavated dodecahedron Excavated dodecahedron In geometry, the excavated dodecahedron is a star polyhedron having 60 equilateral triangular faces. Its exterior surface represents the Efg stellation of the icosahedron. It appears in Magnus Wenninger's book "Polyhedron Models" as model 28, the "third stellation of icosahedron". It has the same external form as a certain facetting of the dodecahedron having 20 self-intersecting hexagons as faces. The non-convex hexagon face can be broken up into four equilateral triangles, three of which are the same size. A true excavated dodecahedron has the three congruent equilateral triangles as true faces of the polyhedron, while the interior equilateral
Regular dodecahedron the children's novel "The Phantom Tollbooth", the regular dodecahedron appears as a character in the land of Mathematics. Each of his faces wears a different expression – "e.g." happy, angry, sad – which he swivels to the front as required to match his mood. Dodecahedron is the name of an avant-garde black metal band from Netherlands. Various models have been proposed for the global geometry of the universe. In addition to the primitive geometries, these proposals include the Poincaré dodecahedral space, a positively curved space consisting of a regular dodecahedron whose opposite faces correspond (with a small twist). This was
