Great stellated dodecahedron of uniform polyhedra. Truncating edges down to points produces the great icosidodecahedron as a rectified great stellated dodecahedron. The process completes as a birectification, reducing the original faces down to points, and producing the great icosahedron. The truncated "great stellated dodecahedron" is a degenerate polyhedron, with 20 triangular faces from the truncated vertices, and 12 (hidden) pentagonal faces as truncations of the original pentagram faces, the latter forming a great dodecahedron inscribed within and sharing the edges of the icosahedron. Great stellated dodecahedron In geometry, the great stellated dodecahedron is a Kepler-Poinsot polyhedron, with Schläfli symbol {5/2,3}. It is one
Pentakis snub dodecahedron Pentakis snub dodecahedron The pentakis snub dodecahedron is a convex polyhedron with 140 triangular faces, 210 edges, and 72 vertices. It has chiral icosahedral symmetry. Its name comes from a topological construction from the snub dodecahedron with the kis operator applied to the pentagonal faces. In this construction, all the vertices are computed to be the same distance from the center. The 80 of the triangles are equilateral, and 60 triangles from the pentagons are isosceles. It is a (2,1) geodesic polyhedron, made of all triangles. The path between the valence-5 vertices is two edges in a row, and then
