Great Icosidodecahedron


U54

The great icosidodecahedron, not to be confused with the great icosahedron or great icosicosidodecahedron, is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 54 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 94 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 70 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and Har'El index 59 (Har'El 1993). It has Schläfli symbol {3; 5/2} and Wythoff symbol 2|35/2. Its faces are 20{3}+12{5/2}.

It is a stellated Archimedean solid.

The great icosidodecahedron is implemented in the Wolfram Language as UniformPolyhedron[94], UniformPolyhedron["GreatIcosidodecahedron"], UniformPolyhedron[{"Coxeter", 70}], UniformPolyhedron[{"Kaleido", 59}], UniformPolyhedron[{"Uniform", 54}], or UniformPolyhedron[{"Wenninger", 94}]. It is also implemented in the Wolfram Language as PolyhedronData["GreatIcosidodecahedron"].

IcosidodecahedralGraph

Its skeleton is the icosidodecahedral graph.

Its convex hull is a regular icosidodecahedron.

Its circumradius for unit edge length is

 R=phi^(-1),

where phi is the golden ratio.

GreatIcosidodecahedronAndDual

Its dual is the great rhombic triacontahedron, with which it is illustrated above.
