hidden parts

Is the star vertex hidden under a false vertex? I'd like to see a cutaway or semitransparent model. —Tamfang (talk) 05:01, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is peculiar. All 26 vertices, 72 edges, and 48 faces are visible, seemingly to imply no intersecting elements, making it topologically identical to the Catalan disdyakis dodecahedron. Perhaps edges and faces extend inwards, connecting to an opposite visible vertex? Tom Ruen (talk) 20:11, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This table shows dual faces, and as best I can tell, everything is visible for U20 dual. [1] Tom Ruen (talk) 20:58, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Stella (software) can select faces, and shows what's hidden, and nothing hidden here. Tom Ruen (talk) 22:10, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Who established this is the dual of great truncated cuboctahedron? --Little bishop (talk) 22:32, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'd guess Magnus Wenninger, he's the one responsible for first constructing many of the dual uniform polyhedra in the first place. – OfficialURL (talk) 18:54, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
