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
Dodecahedron they have intrinsically different arrangements of faces and vertices, such that it is impossible to distort one into the other simply by changing the lengths of edges or the angles between edges or faces.) Topologically distinct dodecahedra (excluding pentagonal and rhombic forms) Dodecahedron In geometry, a dodecahedron (Greek , from "dōdeka" "twelve" + "hédra" "base", "seat" or "face") is any polyhedron with twelve flat faces. The most familiar dodecahedron is the regular dodecahedron, which is a Platonic solid. There are also three regular star dodecahedra, which are constructed as stellations of the convex form. All of these have icosahedral symmetry,
