How to Construct a Dodecahedron
How the greeks constructed the Dodecahedron. Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 17. In geometry, a dodecahedron is any polyhedron with twelve flat faces. The most familiar dodecahedron is the regular dodecahedron with regular pentagons as faces, which is a Platonic solid. A regular dode

Canonical structures inside the Platonic solids III | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 51
The dodecahedron is surely one of the truly great mathematical objects---revered by the ancient Greeks, Kepler, and many mathematicians since. Its symmetries are particularly rich, and in this video we look at how to see the five-fold and six-fold symmetries of this object via internal str

The remarkable Platonic solids II: symmetry | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 48 | NJ Wildberger
We look at the symmetries of the Platonic solids, starting here with rigid motions, which are essentially rotations about fixed axes. We use the normalization of angle whereby one full turn has the value one, and also connect the number of rigid motions with the number of directed edges.

How to Construct an Icosahedron
How the greeks constructed the icosahedron. Source: Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 16. In geometry, a regular icosahedron is a convex polyhedron with 20 faces, 30 edges and 12 vertices. It is one of the five Platonic solids, and the one with the most faces. https://www.etsy.com/lis

Rhombofoam in Zome – Scott Vorthmann
Rhombofoam is a pattern that fills 3D space in all the ways that a golden rhombohedron does, while forming dodecahedral and 16-sided cells that have the topology of foam: three cells around each edge, and four around each vertex. The result is a foam model that has the symmetries of a quas

Euclid showed in the last Book XIII of the Elements that there were exactly 5 Platonic solids. Here we go through the argument, but using some modern innovations of notation: in particular instead of talking about angles that sum to 360 degrees around the circle, or perhaps 2 pi radians, w
