Regular dodecahedron an edge length of one unit has the properties: The "regular dodecahedron " has two special orthogonal projections, centered, on vertices and pentagonal faces, correspond to the A and H Coxeter planes. In perspective projection, viewed above a pentagonal face, the regular dodecahedron can be seen as a linear-edged Schlegel diagram, or stereographic projection as a spherical polyhedron. These projections are also used in showing the four-dimensional 120-cell, a regular 4-dimensional polytope, constructed from 120 dodecahedra, projecting it down to 3-dimensions. The regular dodecahedron can also be represented as a spherical tiling. The following Cartesian coordinates define the 20 vertices
Small stellated dodecahedron complex icosidodecahedron. There are four related uniform polyhedra, constructed as degrees of truncation. The dual is a great dodecahedron. The dodecadodecahedron is a rectification, where edges are truncated down to points. The "truncated small stellated dodecahedron" can be considered a degenerate uniform polyhedron since edges and vertices coincide, but it is included for completeness. Visually, it looks like a regular dodecahedron on the surface, but it has 24 faces in overlapping pairs. The spikes are truncated until they reach the plane of the pentagram beneath them. The 24 faces are 12 pentagons from the truncated vertices and 12 decagons taking
