Crossed Square Cupola
In geometry, the crossed square cupola is one of the nonconvex Johnson solid isomorphs, being topologically identical to the convex square cupola. It can be obtained as a slice of the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron or quasirhombicuboctahedron. As in all cupolae, the base polygon has twice as many edges and vertices as the top; in this case the base polygon is an octagram. It may be seen as a cupola with a retrograde square base, so that the squares and triangles connect across the bases in the opposite way to the square cupola, hence intersecting each other. Related polyhedra The crossed square cupola may be seen as a part of some uniform polyhedra. For example, the great cubicuboctahedron may be seen as six crossed square cupolae connected at their triangular faces, while the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron may be seen as a blend of six cupolae. Additionally, the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron may be seen as an octagrammic prism with the octagrams excavate ...

Johnson Solid
In geometry, a Johnson solid is a strictly convex polyhedron each face of which is a regular polygon. There is no requirement that isohedral, each face must be the same polygon, or that the same polygons join around each Vertex (geometry), vertex. An example of a Johnson solid is the square-based Pyramid (geometry), pyramid with equilateral sides (square pyramid, ); it has 1 square face and 4 triangular faces. Some authors require that the solid not be uniform polyhedron, uniform (i.e., not Platonic solid, Archimedean solid, prism (geometry), uniform prism, or uniform antiprism) before they refer to it as a “Johnson solid”. As in any strictly convex solid, at least three faces meet at every vertex, and the total of their angles is less than 360 degrees. Since a regular polygon has angles at least 60 degrees, it follows that at most five faces meet at any vertex. The pentagonal pyramid () is an example that has a degree-5 vertex. Although there is no obvious restriction tha ...

Pseudo-great Rhombicuboctahedron
In geometry, the pseudo great rhombicuboctahedron is one of the two pseudo uniform polyhedra, the other being the convex elongated square gyrobicupola or pseudo rhombicuboctahedron. It has the same vertex figure as the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron (a uniform polyhedron), but is not a uniform polyhedron (due to not being isogonal), and has a smaller symmetry group. It can be obtained from the great rhombicuboctahedron by taking a square face and the 8 faces with a common vertex to it (forming a crossed square cupola) and rotating them by an angle of . It is related to the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron In geometry, the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U17.

Octahedral Symmetry
A regular octahedron has 24 rotational (or orientation-preserving) symmetries, and 48 symmetries altogether. These include transformations that combine a reflection and a rotation. A cube has the same set of symmetries, since it is the polyhedron that is dual polyhedron, dual to an octahedron. The group of orientation-preserving symmetries is ''S''4, the symmetric group or the group of permutations of four objects, since there is exactly one such symmetry for each permutation of the four diagonals of the cube. Details Chiral and full (or achiral) octahedral symmetry are the Point groups in three dimensions, discrete point symmetries (or equivalently, List of spherical symmetry groups, symmetries on the sphere) with the largest symmetry groups compatible with translational symmetry. They are among the Crystal system#Overview of point groups by crystal system, crystallographic point groups of the cubic crystal system. As the hyperoctahedral group of dimension 3 the full oct ...

Elongated Square Cupola
In geometry, the elongated square cupola is one of the Johnson solids (). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by elongating a square cupola () by attaching an octagonal prism to its base. The solid can be seen as a rhombicuboctahedron with its "lid" (another square cupola) removed. Formulae The following formulae for volume, surface area and circumscribed sphere, circumradius can be used if all face (geometry), faces are regular polygon, regular, with edge length ''a'': :V=\left(3+\frac\right)a^3\approx6.77124...a^3 :A=\left(15+2\sqrt+\sqrt\right)a^2\approx19.5605...a^2 :C=\left(\frac\sqrt\right)a\approx1.39897...a Dual polyhedron The dual of the elongated square cupola has 20 faces: 8 isosceles triangles, 4 kites, 8 quadrilaterals.

Great Cubicuboctahedron
In geometry, the great cubicuboctahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U14. It has 20 faces (8 triangles, 6 squares and 6 octagrams), 48 edges, and 24 vertices. Its square faces and its octagrammic faces are parallel to those of a cube, while its triangular faces are parallel to those of an octahedron: hence the name ''cubicuboctahedron''. The ''great'' suffix serves to distinguish it from the small cubicuboctahedron, which also has faces in the aforementioned directions. Orthographic projections Related polyhedra It shares the vertex arrangement with the convex truncated cube and two other nonconvex uniform polyhedra. It additionally shares its edge arrangement with the nonconvex great rhombicuboctahedron (having the triangular faces and 6 square faces in common), and with the great rhombihexahedron (having the octagrammic faces in common).
