The Goddard-Henning enneahedron, a term coined here, is the canonical polyhedron obtained from the Goddard-Henning graph. It has 9 vertices, 16 edges (consisting of 3 ...

The golden gnomon is the obtuse isosceles triangle whose ratio of side to base lengths is given by 1/phi=phi-1, where phi is the golden ratio. Such a triangle has angles of ...

The gyrate bidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(82). The unit gyrate bidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron has volume ...

The gyrate rhombicosidodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid obtained by rotating one of the pentagonal cupolas of a small rhombicosidodecahedron by 1/10 of a turn. It is ...

A device consisting of two coupled pendula, usually oscillating at right angles to each other, which are attached to a pen. The resulting motion can produce beautiful, ...

A hyperbolic version of the Euclidean dodecahedron. Hyperbolic three-space can be tessellated with hyperbolic dodecahedra whose intermediate dihedral angles are 60, 72, or 90 ...

An infinitesimal transformation of a vector r is given by r^'=(I+e)r, (1) where the matrix e is infinitesimal and I is the identity matrix. (Note that the infinitesimal ...

Jessen's orthogonal icosahedron is a concave shaky polyhedron constructed by replacing six pairs of adjacent triangles in an icosahedron (whose edges form a skew ...

Let a, b, and c be the lengths of the legs of a triangle opposite angles A, B, and C. Then the law of sines states that a/(sinA)=b/(sinB)=c/(sinC)=2R, (1) where R is the ...

Let a triangle have sides of length a, b, and c and let the angles opposite these sides be denoted A, B, and C. The law of tangents states ...
