Icosahedron project

I’ve been motivated by George Hart and Zachary Abel to make my own mathematical sculpture with found objects :-). A few former students dropped by to visit me this afternoon and I put them to…

Icosahedron

Paper model icosahedron. The icosahedron is one of the 5 Platonic Solids (convex regular polyhedra). The model is made of 20 equilateral triangular faces. Nets (templates) and pictures of the paper icosahedron.

An icosahedron fits in an octahedron, with the octahedron edges divided in the golden ratio.

F and I just made an Ornamental origami polygon (icosahedron) made of 30 separate squares of paper. The final shape has 20 convex points and 60 faces. (we slightly cheated using a touch of glue to help with the construction).

WolframAlpha Polyhedron - Rhombic Hexecontahedron: This is a fairly simple polyhedron model.Even a child (from 9 years old) can cope. The model will become a real decoration of the desktop, especially for fans of mathematics. You will need: 1.five sheets of standard size paper 2.scissors 3.glue…

The 30-unit Taj Mahal kusudama is unique because it's almost a perfect ball without holes or protrusion; and its 3 vertices create a hexagon or a 2D cube, which makes it look like a mini truncated icosahedron or bucky ball having 5 & 6-sided polygons. So here, there are 4 vertices that create an octagon, although it's not flat.
