In geometry, an edge-contracted icosahedron is a polyhedron with 18 triangular faces, 27 edges, and 11 vertices with C2v symmetry, order 4. ConstructionIt can be constructed from the regular icosahedron, with one edge contraction, removing one vertex, 3 edges, and 2 faces. This contraction distorts the circumscribed sphere original vertices. With all equilateral triangle faces, it has 2 sets of 3 coplanar equilateral triangles (each forming a half-hexagon), and thus is not a Johnson solid. If the sets of three coplanar triangles are considered a single face (called a triamond[1]), it has 10 vertices, 22 edges, and 14 faces, 12 triangles and 2 triamonds . It may also be described as having a hybrid square-pentagonal antiprismatic core (an antiprismatic core with one square base and one pentagonal base); each base is then augmented with a pyramid. Related polytopesThe dissected regular icosahedron is a name for this polytope with the two sets of 3 coplanar faces as trapezoids. This is the vertex figure of a 4D polytope, grand antiprism. It has 10 vertices, 22 edges, and 12 equilateral triangular faces and 2 trapezoid faces.[2] In chemistryIn chemistry, this polyhedron is most commonly called the octadecahedron, for 18 triangular faces, and represents the closo-boranate [B11H11]2−.

Related polyhedraThe elongated octahedron is similar to the edge-contracted icosahedron, but instead of only one edge contracted, two opposite edges are contracted.
