In geometry, the elongated pentagonal pyramid is one of the Johnson solids (J9). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by elongating a pentagonal pyramid (J2) by attaching a pentagonal prism to its base.
The 92 Johnson solids were named and described by Norman Johnson in 1966.
[edit] Dual polyhedron
The dual of the elongated pentagonal pyramid has 11 faces: 5 triangular, 1 pentagonal and 5 trapezoidal.
