In geometry, the augmented truncated tetrahedron is a polyhedron constructed by attaching a triangular cupola onto a truncated tetrahedron. It is an example of a Johnson solid. Out of 19 modified Archimedean solids, it is the only one created by augmenting the truncated tetrahedron.
The augmented truncated tetrahedron is constructed from a truncated tetrahedron by attaching a triangular cupola.[1] This cupola covers one of the truncated tetrahedron's four hexagonal faces, so that the resulting polyhedron's faces are eight equilateral triangles, three squares, and three regular hexagons.[2] Since it has the property of convexity and has regular polygonal faces, the augmented truncated tetrahedron is a Johnson solid, denoted as the sixty-fifth Johnson solid .[3]
