The Metabiaugmented Truncated Dodecahedron


The metabiaugmented truncated dodecahedron is the 70th Johnson solid, or J70 for short. It has 52 faces (10 decagons, 2 pentagons, 10 squares, and 30 triangles), 120 edges, and 70 vertices. It is obtained by augmenting two non-opposite, non-adjacent decagonal faces of the truncated dodecahedron with pentagonal cupolae (J5).

If one of the augments is removed, the result is the augmented truncated dodecahedron (J68). A third augment can be added on a decagon non-adjacent to the existing augments, producing the triaugmented truncated dodecahedron (J71).
