In geometry, the elongated pentagonal rotunda is one of the Johnson solids (J21). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by elongating a pentagonal rotunda (J6) by attaching a decagonal prism to its base. It can also be seen as an elongated pentagonal orthobirotunda (J42) with one pentagonal rotunda removed.

Contents

A Johnson solid is one of 92 strictly convex polyhedra that is composed of regular polygon faces but are not uniform polyhedra (that is, they are not Platonic solids , Archimedean solids , prisms , or antiprisms ). They were named by Norman Johnson , who first listed these polyhedra in 1966. [1]

Formulae

The following formulae for volume and surface area can be used if all faces are regular, with edge length a: [2]

Dual polyhedron

The dual of the elongated pentagonal rotunda has 30 faces: 10 isosceles triangles, 10 rhombi, and 10 quadrilaterals.
