In geometry, a triakis tetrahedron (or kistetrahedron[1]) is a Catalan solid with 12 faces. Each Catalan solid is the dual of an Archimedean solid. The dual of the triakis tetrahedron is the truncated tetrahedron. The triakis tetrahedron can be seen as a tetrahedron with a triangular pyramid added to each face; that is, it is the Kleetope of the tetrahedron. It is very similar to the net for the 5-cell, as the net for a tetrahedron is a triangle with other triangles added to each edge, the net for the 5-cell a tetrahedron with pyramids attached to each face. This interpretation is expressed in the name. The length of the shorter edges is {{sfrac|3|5}} that of the longer edges[2]. If the triakis tetrahedron has shorter edge length 1, it has area {{sfrac|5|3}}{{sqrt|11}} and volume {{sfrac|25|36}}{{sqrt|2}}. Tetartoid symmetryThe triakis tetrahedron can be made as a degenerate limit of a tetaroid: Orthogonal projections
VariationsA triakis tetrahedron with equilateral triangle faces represents a net of the four-dimensional regular polytope known as the 5-cell. If the triangles are right-angled isosceles, the faces will be coplanar and form a cubic volume. This can be seen by adding the 6 edges of tetrahedron inside of a cube. StellationsThis chiral figure is one of thirteen stellations allowed by Miller's rules. Related polyhedraThe triakis tetrahedron is a part of a sequence of polyhedra and tilings, extending into the hyperbolic plane. These face-transitive figures have (*n32) reflectional symmetry. {{Truncated figure1 table}}{{Tetrahedron family}}See also
