3D model of a great stellated truncated dodecahedron

In geometry, the great stellated truncated dodecahedron (or quasitruncated great stellated dodecahedron or great stellatruncated dodecahedron) is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U66. It has 32 faces (20 triangles and 12 decagrams), 90 edges, and 60 vertices. It is given a Schläfli symbol t0,1{5/3,3}.

Related polyhedra

It shares its vertex arrangement with three other uniform polyhedra: the small icosicosidodecahedron, the small ditrigonal dodecicosidodecahedron, and the small dodecicosahedron:

Cartesian coordinates

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a great stellated truncated dodecahedron are all the even permutations of ( 0 , ± φ , ± [ 2 1 φ ] ) ( ± φ , ± 1 φ , ± 2 φ ) ( ± 1 φ 2 , ± 1 φ , ± 2 ) {\displaystyle {\begin{array}{crclc}{\Bigl (}&0,&\pm \,\varphi ,&\pm {\bigl }&{\Bigr )}\\{\Bigl (}&\pm \,\varphi ,&\pm \,{\frac {1}{\varphi }},&\pm \,{\frac {2}{\varphi }}&{\Bigr )}\\{\Bigl (}&\pm \,{\frac {1}{\varphi ^{2}}},&\pm \,{\frac {1}{\varphi }},&\pm \,2&{\Bigr )}\end{array}}}

where φ = 1 + 5 2 {\displaystyle \varphi ={\tfrac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}} is the golden ratio.
