Variations
With the ideas presented in this document,
you can also construct other Platonic and Archimedean solids. For
example, the dodecahedron (12 faces, each face a pentagon) could be
constructed. This may be useful if you have multiple sections of the
same class, or if you choose to do this project several years in a row.
