Hexapentakis truncated icosahedron constructed as an augmented truncated icosahedron, adding pyramids to the 20 hexagonal faces, creating 120 new triangular faces. It is visually similar to the chiral snub dodecahedron which has 80 triangles and 12 pentagons. The dual polyhedron can be seen as a "hexatruncated pentakis dodecahedron", a dodecahedron with its faced augmented by pentagonal pyramids (a pentakis dodecahedron), and then its 6-valance vertices truncated. It has similar groups of irregular pentagons as the pentagonal hexecontahedron. Hexapentakis truncated icosahedron The hexapentakis truncated icosahedron is a convex polyhedron constructed as an augmented truncated icosahedron. It is geodesic polyhedron {3,5+}, with pentavalent vertices separated
Elongated dodecahedron dodecahedra can be distorted into cubic volumes, with the honeycomb as a half-offset stacking of cubes. It can also be made concave by adjusting the 8 corners downward by the same amount as the centers are moved up. The elongated dodecahedron can be constructed as a contraction of a uniform truncated octahedron, where square faces are reduced to single edges and regular hexagonal faces are reduced to 60 degree rhombic faces (or pairs of equilateral triangles). This construction alternates square and rhombi on the 4-valence vertices, and has half the symmetry, D symmetry, order 8. Elongated dodecahedron In geometry, the
