Truncated triakis tetrahedron

In geometry, the truncated triakis tetrahedron, or more precisely an order-6 truncated triakis tetrahedron, is a convex polyhedron with 16 faces: 4 sets of 3 pentagons arranged in a tetrahedral arrangement, with 4 hexagons in the gaps. (Wikipedia).

How to construct a Tetrahedron

How the greeks constructed the first platonic solid: the regular tetrahedron. Source: Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 13. In geometry, a tetrahedron also known as a triangular pyramid, is a polyhedron composed of four triangular faces, six straight edges, and four vertex corners. Th

Jessica Purcell: Structure of hyperbolic manifolds - Lecture 1

Abstract: In these lectures, we will review what it means for a 3-manifold to have a hyperbolic structure, and give tools to show that a manifold is hyperbolic. We will also discuss how to decompose examples of 3-manifolds, such as knot complements, into simpler pieces. We give conditions

AlgTop8: Polyhedra and Euler's formula

We investigate the five Platonic solids: tetrahedron, cube, octohedron, icosahedron and dodecahedron. Euler's formula relates the number of vertices, edges and faces. We give a proof using a triangulation argument and the flow down a sphere. This is the eighth lecture in this beginner's
