of the
great rhombidodecahedron
In geometry, the great rhombidodecahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U73. It has 42 faces (30 squares, 12 decagram (geometry), decagrams), 120 edges and 60 vertices. Its vertex figure is a antiparallelogram, crossed quadrilater ...

In geometry, the great deltoidal hexecontahedron (or great sagittal ditriacontahedron) is a nonconvex isohedral polyhedron. It is the dual of the nonconvex great rhombicosidodecahedron. It is visually identical to the great rhombidodecacron. It h ...
. Its faces are
antiparallelograms.
Proportions
Each antiparallelogram has two angles of
and two angles of
. The diagonals of each antiparallelogram intersect at an angle of
. The
dihedral angle equals
. The ratio between the lengths of the long edges and the short ones equals
, which is the
golden ratio. Part of each face lies inside the solid, hence is invisible in solid models.
