In geometry, the snub icosidodecadodecahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U46.
Cartesian coordinates
Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a snub icosidodecadodecahedron are all the even permutations of
- (±2α, ±2γ, ±2β),
- (±(α+β/τ+γτ), ±(-ατ+β+γ/τ), ±(α/τ+βτ-γ)),
- (±(-α/τ+βτ+γ), ±(-α+β/τ-γτ), ±(ατ+β-γ/τ)),
- (±(-α/τ+βτ-γ), ±(α-β/τ-γτ), ±(ατ+β+γ/τ)) and
- (±(α+β/τ-γτ), ±(ατ-β+γ/τ), ±(α/τ+βτ+γ)),
with an even number of plus signs, where
- α = ρ+1,
- β = τ2ρ2+τ2ρ+τ,
- γ = ρ2+τρ,
and where τ = (1+√5)/2 is the golden mean and ρ is the real solution to ρ3=ρ+1, or approximately 1.3247180. ρ is called the plastic constant. Taking the odd permutations of the above coordinates with an odd number of plus signs gives another form, the enantiomorph of the other one.
