Regular dodecahedron whereas a regular icosahedron has 20 faces and 12 vertices. Both have 30 edges. A cube can be embedded within a regular dodecahedron, affixed to eight of its equidistant vertices, in five different positions. In fact, five cubes may overlap and interlock inside the regular dodecahedron to result in the compound of five cubes. The ratio of the edge of a regular dodecahedron to the edge of a cube embedded inside such a regular dodecahedron is 1 : "ϕ", or ("ϕ" − 1) : 1. The ratio of a regular dodecahedron's volume to the volume of a cube embedded inside
Regular icosahedron and symmetric. The automorphism group has order 120. The vertices can be colored with 4 colors, the edges with 5 colors, and the diameter is 3. The icosahedral graph is Hamiltonian: there is a cycle containing all the vertices. It is also a planar graph. There are 4 related Johnson solids, including pentagonal faces with a subset of the 12 vertices. The similar dissected regular icosahedron has 2 adjacent vertices diminished, leaving two trapezoidal faces, and a bifastigium has 2 opposite sets of vertices removed and 4 trapezoidal faces. The pentagonal antiprism is formed by removing two opposite vertices. The
