3D model of a trigyrate rhombicosidodecahedron
In geometry, the trigyrate rhombicosidodecahedron is one of the Johnson solids (Template:Math). It contains 20 triangles, 30 squares and 12 pentagons. It is also a canonical polyhedron.
It can be constructed as a rhombicosidodecahedron with three pentagonal cupolae rotated through 36 degrees. Related Johnson solids are:
- The gyrate rhombicosidodecahedron (Template:Math) where one cupola is rotated;
- The parabigyrate rhombicosidodecahedron (Template:Math) where two opposing cupolae are rotated;
- And the metabigyrate rhombicosidodecahedron (Template:Math) where two non-opposing cupolae are rotated.
