The pentagon can be seen as the two-dimensional analog to the dodecahedron in 3D and the cosmochoron in 4D. It is also the lowest-dimensional member of the ursatopes, with a (trivial) digonal base.
Equations
- The hypervolumes of a pentagon with side length l are given by:
total edge length = 5l
area = 1∕4 · √(25+10√5) · l2
Use
Pentagonal faces are found in these trishapes on FGwiki:
- Dodecahedron (12×, 100%)
- Icosidodecahedron (12×, 38%)
- Icosahedral truncate (12×, 38%)
- Dodecahedral snub (12×, 13%)
