The Gyroelongated Triangular Bicupola


The gyroelongated triangular bicupola is the 44th Johnson solid (J44). It has 18 vertices, 42 edges, and 26 faces (20 equilateral triangles and 6 squares).

The gyroelongated triangular bicupola can be constructed by attaching two triangular bicupolae to a hexagonal antiprism, or equivalently, adding a second triangular cupola to a gyroelongated triangular cupola (J22).

J44 is one of the few Johnson solids that are chiral; it is distinct from its own mirror image:
