In geometry, the parabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron is one of the Johnson solids (J80). It is also a canonical polyhedron.
A Johnson solid is one of 92 strictly convex polyhedra that are 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]
It can be constructed as a rhombicosidodecahedron with two opposing pentagonal cupolae removed. Related Johnson solids are the diminished rhombicosidodecahedron (J76) where one cupola is removed, the metabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron (J81) where two non-opposing cupolae are removed, and the tridiminished rhombicosidodecahedron (J83) where three cupolae are removed.
