| truncations by the vertices give the truncated dodecahedron, then the icosidodecahedron, then the truncated icosahedron, and the complete truncation the icosahedron | a truncation by the edges gives a chamfered dodecahedron with all edges equal, and the complete truncation the rhombic triacontahedron
(likewise for the chamfered icosahedron) |
a truncation the vertices and by the edges lead to the small rhombicosidodecahedron
(starting with the icosidodecahedron gives the great rhombicosidodecahedron) |
