"Triple D" is the Double Dodecahedron Dissection. The model consists of a ring of 24 edge-connected, alternating tetrahedra and pentahedra that can be folded up to make either a pentagonal dodecahedron or a rhombic dodecahedron. It is a modular, made from 60 squares and 12 silver rectangles. We will probably not finish the model in class, but everyone will know how to make the modules and connect them before the end. Free math lesson included!

Advisories
  • This will likely take longer than the completed class time to complete.
  • This uses non-square paper: Squares, and silver rectangles.
  • This is a modular/composite requiring 72 sheets.
  • Model requires a high degree of accuracy.
Supplies

Students may find tweezers or a bone folder helpful, but they are not necessary.
