 | Small Cubicuboctahedron |
- Vertex description: 4.8.3/2.8
- Faces: 20
- Edges: 48
- Vertices: 24
- External facelets: 62
- Dual: Small hexacronic icositetrahedron
- Name breakdown:
- Small: To distinguish polyhedra that would otherwise have the
same name.
- Cubi-: 6 faces (octagons) lie parallel to those of a
cube
- -cub-: 6 more faces (squares) lie parallel to those of a
cube
- -octa-: 8 faces (triangles) lie parallel to those of an
octahedron
A uniform polyhedron whose faces consist of 8 triangles (blue), 6 squares
(red) and 6 octagons (yellow). It is a faceting of the
rhombicuboctahedron, that is, it shares the
same vertices. It also shares the same vertices with the
small rhombihexahedron and the
stellated truncated hexahedron. In fact all
but the last of those share the same edges too.
