3D model of a small hexagonal hexecontahedron

In geometry, the small hexagonal hexecontahedron is a nonconvex isohedral polyhedron. It is the dual of the uniform small snub icosicosidodecahedron. It is partially degenerate, having coincident vertices, as its dual has coplanar triangular faces.

Treating it as a simple non-convex solid (without intersecting surfaces), it has 180 faces (all triangles), 270 edges, and 92 vertices (twelve with degree 10, twenty with degree 12, and sixty with degree 3), giving an Euler characteristic of 92 270 + 180 = +2.


Faces

The faces are irregular hexagons. Denoting the golden ratio by and putting , the hexagons have five equal angles of and one of . Each face has four long and two short edges. The ratio between the edge lengths is

.

The dihedral angle equals .
