Three Polyhedra Which Each Contain Four Regular Dodecagonal Faces

I stumbled upon these while playing with tetrahedral-symmetry alterations of a great rhombicuboctahedron, using Stella 4d. You can try this program for free at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

A Tessellation Featuring Regular Hexagons, Squares, Equilateral Triangles, and Isosceles Trapezoids

At first glance, the line segments in this tessellation might appear curved, but they are all perfectly straight.

An Excavated Truncated Icosahedron

In this polyhedron, the twenty hexagonal faces have had triangular cupolae removed from the inside of the solid. I did this with Stella 4d, which you can find at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.

A 72-Faced Faceted Rhombicosidodecahedron

Twelve of the faces of this polyhedron are star pentagons, and they are easy to spot. The other sixty faces are isosceles trapezoids, and they’re harder to find because parts of them are hidden inside in the solid. The image below shows where these trapezoids can be found.

I made this using Stella 4d: Polyhedron Navigator, a program you can try for free at http://www.software3d.com/Stella.php.
