Rectified Truncated Icosahedron
In geometry, the rectified truncated icosahedron is a convex polyhedron. It has 92 faces: 60 isosceles triangles, 12 regular pentagons, and 20 regular hexagons. It is constructed as a rectified, truncated icosahedron, rectification truncating vertices down to mid-edges. As a near-miss Johnson solid, under icosahedral symmetry, the pentagons are always regular, although the hexagons, while having equal edge lengths, do not have the same edge lengths with the pentagons, having slightly different but alternating angles, causing the triangles to be isosceles instead. The shape is a symmetrohedron with notation ''I(1,2,*, '' Images Dual By Conway polyhedron notation, the dual polyhedron can be called a ''joined truncated icosahedron'', jtI, but it is topologically equivalent to the rhombic enneacontahedron with all rhombic faces. Related polyhedra The ''rectified truncated icosahedron'' can be seen in sequence of rectification and truncation operations from the truncated ...

Near-miss Johnson Solid
In geometry, a near-miss Johnson solid is a strictly convex polyhedron whose faces are close to being regular polygons but some or all of which are not precisely regular. Thus, it fails to meet the definition of a Johnson solid, a polyhedron whose faces are all regular, though it "can often be physically constructed without noticing the discrepancy" between its regular and irregular faces.. The precise number of near-misses depends on how closely the faces of such a polyhedron are required to approximate regular polygons. Some near-misses with high symmetry are also symmetrohedra with some truly regular polygon faces. Some near-misses are also zonohedra. Examples Coplanar misses Some failed Johnson solid candidates have coplanar faces. These polyhedra can be perturbed to become convex with faces that are arbitrarily close to regular polygons. These cases use 4.4.4.4 vertex figures of the square tiling, 3.3.3.3.3.3 vertex figure of the triangular tiling, as well as 60 degree r ...

Conway Polyhedron Notation
In geometry, Conway polyhedron notation, invented by John Horton Conway and promoted by George W. Hart, is used to describe polyhedra based on a seed polyhedron modified by various prefix operations. Conway and Hart extended the idea of using operators, like truncation as defined by Kepler, to build related polyhedra of the same symmetry. For example, represents a truncated cube, and , parsed as , is (topologically) a truncated cuboctahedron. The simplest operator dual swaps vertex and face elements; e.g., a dual cube is an octahedron: . Applied in a series, these operators allow many higher order polyhedra to be generated. Conway defined the operators (ambo), (bevel), ( dual), (expand), (gyro), (join), (kis), (meta), (ortho), (snub), and ( truncate), while Hart added ( reflect) and (propellor). Later implementations named further operators, sometimes referred to as "extended" operators. Conway's basic operations are sufficient to generate the Archimedean and Cat ...

Snub Rectified Truncated Icosahedron
A snub, cut or slight is a refusal to recognise an acquaintance by ignoring them, avoiding them or pretending not to know them. For example, a failure to greet someone may be considered a snub. In Awards and Lists For awards, the term "snub" is usually used to refer to a work or person that fails to be nominated or win award, with whether or not a person or work was legitimately snubbed for an award has often been subject for public debate. The term Snub has also been used in relation to lists, such as the NBA 75th Anniversary Team. Many of the most notable people and works have failed to be nominated or win a major award for example Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, and Spike Lee never won best director at the Oscars despite being nominated five, four, and one time respectively, Glenn Close, Peter O'Toole, and Cicely Tyson were also notable for having never won an Oscar related to acting despite each of them having multiple nominations. Among films, ''Citizen Kane'', ''The P ...

Uniform Polyhedron-53-t12
A uniform is a variety of clothing worn by members of an organization while participating in that organization's activity. Modern uniforms are most often worn by armed forces and paramilitary organizations such as police, emergency services, security guards, in some workplaces and schools and by inmates in prisons. In some countries, some other officials also wear uniforms in their duties; such is the case of the Commissioned Corps of the United States Public Health Service or the French prefects. For some organizations, such as police, it may be illegal for non members to wear the uniform. Etymology From the Latin ''unus'', one, and ''forma'', form. Corporate and work uniforms Workers sometimes wear uniforms or corporate clothing of one nature or another. Workers required to wear a uniform may include retail workers, bank and post-office workers, public-security and health-care workers, blue-collar employees, personal trainers in health clubs, instructors i ...

Truncated Icosahedron
In geometry, the truncated icosahedron is an Archimedean solid, one of 13 convex isogonal nonprismatic solids whose 32 faces are two or more types of regular polygons. It is the only one of these shapes that does not contain triangles or squares. In general usage, the degree of truncation is assumed to be uniform unless specified. It has 12 regular pentagonal faces, 20 regular hexagonal faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges. It is the Goldberg polyhedron GPV(1,1) or 1,1, containing pentagonal and hexagonal faces. This geometry is associated with footballs (soccer balls) typically patterned with white hexagons and black pentagons. Geodesic domes such as those whose architecture Buckminster Fuller pioneered are often based on this structure. It also corresponds to the geometry of the fullerene C60 ("buckyball") molecule. It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated order-5 dodecahedral honeycomb. Construction This polyhedron can ...
