The small icosicosidodecahedron, or siid, is a uniform polyhedron. It consists of 20 triangles, 12 pentagrams, and 20 hexagons. One triangle, one pentagram, and two hexagons join at each vertex.

A semi-uniform variant of this polyhedron can be constructed as a rectified small ditrigonary icosidodecahedron.

Vertex coordinates

A small icosicosidodecahedron of edge length 1 has vertex coordinates given by all even permutations of:

• $\left(±\frac12,\,±\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2},\,±\frac{\sqrt5-1}{4}\right),$
• $\left(0,\,±\frac{3+\sqrt5}{4},\,±\frac{\sqrt5}{2}\right),$
• $\left(±\frac12,\,±1,\,±\frac{3+\sqrt5}{4}\right).$

Representations

A small icosicosidodecahedron has the following Coxeter diagrams:

• x5/2o3x3*a
• ß5o3x (as holosnub)

Related polyhedra

The small icosicosidodecahedron is the colonel of a three-member regiment that also includes the small ditrigonal dodecicosidodecahedron and the small dodecicosahedron.
