82 fig. 58
Now, as has just been established, the edge of the GI as shown in fig. 45 and fig. 58 is: which can be written: The scale factor to consider is therefore or, replacing from above: 83 a dod12 a dod 3 S f 8a ic a dod 3 S f 8 3 with cos I i 2 3 cos I i 2 2 it comes 8 3 S f 2 2 After some calculations and reduction we have: 8 3 S f 2.7826 11 7 This is the number we should multiply measurements on say fig. 45 to find the actual dimension on a model having for kernel the icosahedron of edge a ic . The question is what is the size of the original kernel icosahedron that would give rise to the GI built on the dodecahedron we started with. We have designated its edge as a ic so that we can write: 8a ic a dod 3 3 or a ic 8 a dod 2 1 a dod 8 1 a dod 0.5295a dod 4 8
