Let the linear transformations be the transformations which send a point to the even permutations of with an even number of minus signs. The transformations constitute the group of rotational symmetries of a regular tetrahedron. The transformations , constitute the group of rotational symmetries of a regular icosahedron. Then the 60 points are the vertices of a snub dodecadodecahedron. The edge length equals , the circumradius equals , and the midradius equals .

Medial inverted pentagonal hexecontahedron

The medial inverted pentagonal hexecontahedron (or midly petaloid ditriacontahedron) is a nonconvex isohedral polyhedron. It is the dual of the uniform inverted snub dodecadodecahedron. Its faces are irregular nonconvex pentagons, with one very acute angle.

Denote the golden ratio by , and let be the largest (least negative) real zero of the polynomial . Then each face has three equal angles of , one of and one of . Each face has one medium length edge, two short and two long ones. If the medium length is , then the short edges have length and the long edges have length The dihedral angle equals . The other real zero of the polynomial plays a similar role for the medial pentagonal hexecontahedron.
