Pentahexagonal pyritoheptacontatetrahedron

In geometry, a pentahexagonal pyritoheptacontatetrahedron is a near-miss Johnson solid with pyritohedral symmetry. This near-miss was discovered by Mason Green in 2006. It has 6 hexagonal faces, 12 pentagonal faces, and 56 triangles in 3 symmetry positions. Mason calls it a hexagonally expanded snubbed dodecahedron.[1]

Model built with polydron

With regular hexagons and pentagons it is a symmetrohedron.[2] The triangle are not equilateral with triangle-triangle edges compressed by 1.8%.

It has 3 vertex configurations, 3.3.5.6, 3.5.3.6, 3.3.3.3.5, with the last shared in the snub dodecahedron.

gollark: Yes, it is a kernel module which provides a pi device file.
gollark: Which should really be Unicode aware and support /dev/π.
gollark: It would be about as useful as that /dev/pi module.
gollark: Idea: kernel space yes module for improved performance.
gollark: Sadly my phone CPU is weak and it can only do yes at 500MB/s.
