Tridecahendon

The tridecahendon (older name tridecahendakon), also commonly called the 12-simplex, is the simplest possible non-degenerate polyhendon. The full symmetry version has 13 regular dodecadaka as facets, joining 3 to a xennon and 12 to a vertex, and is one of the 3 regular polyhenda. It is the 12-dimensional simplex.

Vertex coordinates
The vertices of a regular tridecahendon of edge length 1, centered at the origin, are given by:


 * $$\left(±\frac{1}{2},\,-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{6},\,-\frac{\sqrt{6}}{12},\,-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{20},\,-\frac{\sqrt{15}}{30},\,-\frac{\sqrt{21}}{42},\,-\frac{\sqrt7}{28},\,-\frac{1}{12},\,-\frac{\sqrt5}{30},\,-\frac{\sqrt{55}}{110},\,-\frac{\sqrt{66}}{132},\,-\frac{\sqrt{78}}{156}\right),$$

Much simpler coordinates can be given in 13 dimensions, as all permutations of:


 * $$\left(\frac{\sqrt2}{2},\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0,\,0\right).$$
