In geometry, the great truncated icosidodecahedron (or great quasitruncated icosidodecahedron or stellatruncated icosidodecahedron) is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U68. It has 62 faces (30 squares, 20 hexagons, and 12 decagrams), 180 edges, and 120 vertices.[1] It is given a Schläfli symbol t0,1,2{5/3,3}, and Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, .

Cartesian coordinates

[edit]

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a great truncated icosidodecahedron centered at the origin are all the even permutations of

The great disdyakis triacontahedron (or trisdyakis icosahedron) is a nonconvex isohedral polyhedron. It is the dual of the great truncated icosidodecahedron. Its faces are triangles.


Proportions

[edit]

The triangles have one angle of , one of and one of The dihedral angle equals Part of each triangle lies within the solid, hence is invisible in solid models.
