Great stellated dodecahedron of uniform polyhedra. Truncating edges down to points produces the great icosidodecahedron as a rectified great stellated dodecahedron. The process completes as a birectification, reducing the original faces down to points, and producing the great icosahedron. The truncated "great stellated dodecahedron" is a degenerate polyhedron, with 20 triangular faces from the truncated vertices, and 12 (hidden) pentagonal faces as truncations of the original pentagram faces, the latter forming a great dodecahedron inscribed within and sharing the edges of the icosahedron. Great stellated dodecahedron In geometry, the great stellated dodecahedron is a Kepler-Poinsot polyhedron, with Schläfli symbol {5/2,3}. It is one
Tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron triangles are always equilateral, while the quadrilaterals are irregular, although the two adjacent edges that meet at the vertices of a tetrahedron are equal. As a self-dual hexadecahedron, it is one of 302404 forms, 1476 with at least order 2 symmetry, and the only one with tetrahedral symmetry. As a diminished regular dodecahedron, with 4 vertices removed, the quadrilaterals faces are trapezoids. As a stellation of the regular icosahedron it is one of 32 stellations defined with tetrahedral symmetry. It has kite faces. In Conway polyhedron notation, it can represented as pT, applying George W. Hart's propeller operator to a
