Truncated dodecahedron Truncated dodecahedron In geometry, the truncated dodecahedron is an Archimedean solid. It has 12 regular decagonal faces, 20 regular triangular faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges. This polyhedron can be formed from a dodecahedron by truncating (cutting off) the corners so the pentagon faces become decagons and the corners become triangles. It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated icosahedral honeycomb. The area "A" and the volume "V" of a truncated dodecahedron of edge length "a" are: Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated dodecahedron with edge length 2"φ" − 2, centered at the origin, are
Tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron Tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron In geometry, a tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron (also tetrahedrally stellated icosahedron or propello tetrahedron) is a topologically self-dual polyhedron made of 16 vertices, 30 edges, and 16 faces (4 equilateral triangles and 12 identical quadrilaterals). It has chiral tetrahedral symmetry, and so its geometry can be constructed from pyritohedral symmetry of the pseudoicosahedron with 4 faces stellated, or from the pyritohedron, with 4 vertices diminished. Within its tetrahedral symmetry, it has geometric varied proportions. By Dorman Luke dual construction, a unique geometric proportion can be defined. The kite faces have edges of length ratio ~ 1:0.6325. Topologically, the
