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
Chamfered dodecahedron faces, 110 hexagons and 12 pentagons. It is constructed by a chamfer operation to the truncated icosahedron, adding new hexagons in place of original edges. It can also be constructed as a zip (= dk = dual of kis of) operation from the "chamfered dodecahedron". In other words, raising pentagonal and hexagonal pyramids on a chamfered dodecahedron (kis operation) will yield the (2,2) geodesic polyhedron. Taking the dual of that yields the (2,2) Goldberg polyhedron, which is the chamfered truncated icosahedron, and is also Fullerene C. Chamfered dodecahedron The chamfered dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 80 vertices, 120 edges,
