3D model of a rhombic triacontahedron. The rhombic triacontahedron, sometimes simply called the triacontahedron as it is the most common thirty-faced polyhedron, is a convex polyhedron with 30 rhombic faces. It has 60 edges and 32 vertices of two types. It is a Catalan solid, and the dual polyhedron of the icosidodecahedron. It is a zonohedron.

[1] [2] There are different truncations of a rhombic triacontahedron into a topological rhombicosidodecahedron: Prominently its rectification (left), the one that creates the uniform solid (center), and the rectification of the dual icosidodecahedron (right), which is the core of the dual compound.
Four numbering schemes for the uniform polyhedra are in common use, distinguished by letters: [C] Coxeter et al., 1954, showed the convex forms as figures 15 through 32; three prismatic forms, figures 33–35; and the nonconvex forms, figures 36–92.
It has 30 intersecting rhombic faces. It can also be called the great stellated triacontahedron. The great rhombic triacontahedron can be constructed by expanding the size of the faces of a rhombic triacontahedron by a factor of τ 3 = 1+2τ = 2+√5, where τ is the golden ratio.
The rhombic hexecontahedron is a stellation of the rhombic triacontahedron. It is nonconvex with 60 golden rhombic faces with icosahedral symmetry. The rhombic enneacontahedron is a polyhedron composed of 90 rhombic faces, with three, five, or six rhombi meeting at each vertex. It has 60 broad rhombi and 30 slim ones.
The rhombic triacontahedron, with two types of alternating vertices, 20 with three rhombic faces, and 12 with five rhombic faces. In addition, by duality with the octahedron, the cube , which is usually regular , can be made quasiregular if alternate vertices are given different colors.
3D model of a rhombic hexecontahedron. In geometry, a rhombic hexecontahedron is a stellation of the rhombic triacontahedron. It is nonconvex with 60 golden rhombic faces with icosahedral symmetry. It was described mathematically in 1940 by Helmut Unkelbach. [1] It is topologically identical to the convex deltoidal hexecontahedron which has ...
