The Gyroelongated Pentagonal Pyramid

---

The gyroelongated pentagonal pyramid is the 11th Johnson solid (J11). It has 11 vertices and 16 faces (15 equilateral triangles and 1 pentagon).

The gyroelongated pentagonal pyramid can be constructed by attaching a pentagonal pyramid to a pentagonal antiprism. It can also be constructed by deleting a single vertex from the icosahedron, and so can also be called the monodiminished icosahedron.

Coordinates

The Cartesian coordinates of the gyroelongated pentagonal pyramid with edge length 2 are:

• (0, 0, A + √((10-2√5)/5)
• ±(B, 0, A)
• ±(C, ±φ, A)
• ±(-D, ±1, A)

where

A	=	√((5+√5)/10)
B	=	√((10+2√5)/5)
C	=	√((5-√5)/10)
D	=	√((5+2√5)/5)
φ	=	(1+√5)/2
