Dodecahedron regular dodecahedron but less symmetrical: the pyritohedron with pyritohedral symmetry, and the tetartoid with tetrahedral symmetry: A pyritohedron is a dodecahedron with pyritohedral (T) symmetry. Like the regular dodecahedron, it has twelve identical pentagonal faces, with three meeting in each of the 20 vertices. However, the pentagons are not constrained to be regular, and the underlying atomic arrangement has no true fivefold symmetry axes. Its 30 edges are divided into two sets – containing 24 and 6 edges of the same length. The only axes of rotational symmetry are three mutually perpendicular twofold axes and four threefold axes. Although regular
Truncated trapezohedron For example, the icosahedron is the dual of the dodecahedron. <br> Truncated trapezohedron An "n"-gonal truncated trapezohedron is a polyhedron formed by a "n"-gonal trapezohedron with "n"-gonal pyramids truncated from its two polar axis vertices. If the polar vertices are completely truncated (diminished), a trapezohedron becomes an antiprism. The vertices exist as 4 "n"-gons in four parallel planes, with alternating orientation in the middle creating the pentagons. The regular dodecahedron is the most common polyhedron in this class, being a platonic solid, with 12 congruent pentagonal faces. A "truncated trapezohedron" has all vertices with 3 faces. This means that the
