60 sided Geodesic Dome
Constructed from 12 Pentagon Pyramids.
Each ‘planted’ on the faces of a Dodecahedron.
60 triangles in total.
I need help with a formula to calculate the Pyramid Height for any given pentagon base length to ensure the 60-sided Geodesic Dome is completely symmetrical
I need the triangles across SIDE face to face angle to equal the triangles across BASE face to face angles to be equal.
The attached PDF of part of a Excel Workbook (hopefully) explains more clearly what I am needing help with and my ‘workings’ to date
If you would like I can send a copy of the Excel Workbook via email - send to andy@lletty.com
Many thanks
Andy
