In geometry, the tridiminished icosahedron is a Johnson solid that is constructed by removing three pentagonal pyramids from a regular icosahedron.
Construction
The tridiminished icosahedron can be constructed by removing three regular pentagonal pyramid from a regular icosahedron.[1] The aftereffect of such construction leaves five equilateral triangles and three regular pentagons.[2] Since all of its faces are regular polygons and the resulting polyhedron remains convex, the tridiminished icosahedron is a Johnson solid, and it is enumerated as the sixty-third Johnson solid .[3] This construction is similar to other Johnson solids as in gyroelongated pentagonal pyramid and metabidiminished icosahedron.[1]
The tridiminished icosahedron is non-composite polyhedron, meaning it is convex polyhedron that cannot be separated by a plane into two or more regular polyhedrons.[4]
Properties
The surface area of a tridiminished icosahedron is the sum of all polygonal faces' area: five equilateral triangles and three regular pentagons. Its volume can be ascertained by subtracting the volume of a regular icosahedron with the volume of three pentagonal pyramids. Given that is the edge length of a tridiminished icosahedron, they are:[2]
