The hendecagrammic prism or shenp is a prismatic uniform polyhedron. It consists of 2 hendecagrams and 11 squares. Each vertex joins one hendecagram and two squares. As the name suggests, it is a prism based on a hendecagram.

Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]

The coordinates of a hendecagrammic prism, centered at the origin and with edge length 2sin(3π/11), are given by:

  • (1, 0, \pmsin(3π/11)),
  • (cos(2π/11), \pmsin(2π/11), \pmsin(3π/11)),
  • (cos(4π/11), \pmsin(4π/11), \pmsin(3π/11)),
  • (cos(6π/11), \pmsin(6π/11), \pmsin(3π/11)),
  • (cos(8π/11), \pmsin(8π/11), \pmsin(3π/11)),
  • (cos(10π/11), \pmsin(10π/11), \pmsin(3π/11)).
