The octagonal-decagonal duoprism or odedip, also known as the 8-10 duoprism, is a uniform duoprism that consists of 8 decagonal prisms and 10 octagonal prisms, with two of each joining at each vertex.

This polychoron can be alternated into a square-pentagonal duoantiprism, although it cannot be made uniform. The octagons can also be alternated into long rectangles to create a pentagonal-square prismantiprismoid, which is also nonuniform.

Vertex coordinates

The vertices of an octagonal-decagonal duoprism of edge length 1, centered at the origin, are given by:

• $\left(\pm {\frac {1}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {2}}}{2}},\,0,\,\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}\right)$,
• $\left(\pm {\frac {1}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {2}}}{2}},\,\pm {\sqrt {\frac {5+{\sqrt {5}}}{8}}},\,\pm {\frac {3+{\sqrt {5}}}{4}}\right)$,
• $\left(\pm {\frac {1}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {2}}}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {\sqrt {5+2{\sqrt {5}}}}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {1}{2}}\right)$,
• $\left(\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {2}}}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {1}{2}},\,0,\,\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}\right)$,
• $\left(\pm {\frac {1+{\sqrt {2}}}{2}},\,\pm {\frac {1}{2}},\,\pm {\sqrt {\frac {5+{\sqrt {5}}}{8}}},\,\pm {\frac {3+{\sqrt {5}}}{4}}\right)$,

Representations

An octagonal-decagonal duoprism has the following Coxeter diagrams:

• x8o x10o () (full symmetry)
• x4x x10o () (B₂×I₂(10) symmetry, octagons as ditetragons)
• x5x x8o () (H₂×I₂(8) symmetry, decagons as dipentagons)
• x4x x5x () (B₂×H₂ symmetry, both of these applied)
