Talk:Truncated triakis tetrahedron

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the one-with-regular-hexagons section, it would be nice if the dimensions of the pentagons were given. Just how far are those pentagons from being regular? Curiously, RobertAustin 14:11, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Robert. Best I can suggest is to get the model and measure edge lengths: t6dtT. If done well, four edges can be equal and one edge must be long.) Tom Ruen 23:09, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I think it relevant to point out the possibility of confusion between the truncated triakis tetrahedron and the triakis truncated tetrahedron which is a truncated tetrahedron ( cut offs one third of edge length ) which have the raised triakis treatment ( flattish tetrahedrons one quarter of the height of the cutoffs replacing them). These have been called by an author snub tetrahedrons which are something else. 217.207.112.194 22:38, 22 January 2007 (UTC)Robert Reid
