In geometry, the pentagonal bipyramid (or dipyramid) is third of the infinite set of face-transitive bipyramids, and the 13th Johnson solid (J13). Each bipyramid is the dual of a uniform prism.

Although it is face-transitive, it is not a Platonic solid because some vertices have four faces meeting and others have five faces.

Construction

Like other bipyramids, the pentagonal bipyramid can be constructed by attaching the base of two pentagonal pyramids. These pyramids cover their pentagonal base, such that the resulting polyhedron has 10 triangles as its faces.[1] The pentagonal bipyramid is said to be right if the pyramids are symmetrically regular and both of their apices are on the line passing through the base's center; otherwise, it is oblique. If the pyramids are regular, then all edges of the triangular bipyramid are equal in length, making up the faces equilateral triangles. A polyhedron with only equilateral triangles as faces is called a deltahedron. There are only eight different convex deltahedra, one of which is the pentagonal bipyramid with regular faces. More generally, the convex polyhedron in which all faces are regular is the Johnson solid, and every convex deltahedra is a Johnson solid. The pentagonal bipyramid with the regular faces is among numbered the Johnson solids as , the thirteenth Johnson solid.[2]

Properties

The pentagonal dipyramid is 4-connected, meaning that it takes the removal of four vertices to disconnect the remaining vertices. It is one of only four 4-connected simplicial well-covered polyhedra, meaning that all of the maximal independent sets of its vertices have the same size. The other three polyhedra with this property are the regular octahedron, the snub disphenoid, and an irregular polyhedron with 12 vertices and 20 triangular faces.[3]

Formulae

The following formulae for the height (), surface area () and volume () can be used if all faces are regular, with edge length :[4]

The dual of the Johnson solid pentagonal bipyramid is the pentagonal prism, with 7 faces: 5 rectangular faces and 2 pentagons.
