Final stellation of the icosahedron 180 triangular faces, which are the outermost triangular regions in the stellation diagram. These join along 270 edges, which in turn meet at 92 vertices, with an Euler characteristic of 2. The 92 vertices lie on the surfaces of three concentric spheres. The innermost group of 20 vertices form the vertices of a regular dodecahedron; the next layer of 12 form the vertices of a regular icosahedron; and the outer layer of 60 form the vertices of a nonuniform truncated icosahedron. The radii of these spheres are in the ratio When regarded as a three-dimensional solid object with edge lengths
Rhombic dodecahedron Bilinski dodecahedron. It has the same topology but different geometry. The rhombic faces in this form have the golden ratio. Another topologically equivalent variation, sometimes called a deltoidal dodecahedron or trapezoidal dodecahedron, is isohedral with tetrahedral symmetry order 24, distorting rhombic faces into kites (deltoids). It has 8 vertices adjusted in or out in alternate sets of 4, with the limiting case a tetrahedral envelope. Variations can be parametrized by ("a","b"), where "b" is determined from "a" for planar faces. (1,1) is the rhombic solution. As ("a") approaches , ("b") approaches infinity. When projected onto a sphere (see right), it
