In geometry, the great icosacronic hexecontahedron (or great sagittal trisicosahedron) is the dual of the great icosicosidodecahedron. Its faces are darts. A part of each dart lies inside the solid, hence is invisible in solid models.

Proportions

Faces have two angles of $\arccos({\frac {3}{4}}+{\frac {1}{20}}{\sqrt {5}})\approx 30.480\,324\,565\,36^{\circ }$, one of $\arccos(-{\frac {1}{12}}+{\frac {19}{60}}{\sqrt {5}})\approx 51.335\,802\,942\,83^{\circ }$ and one of $360^{\circ }-\arccos(-{\frac {5}{12}}+{\frac {1}{60}}{\sqrt {5}})\approx 247.703\,547\,926\,46^{\circ }$. Its dihedral angles equal $\arccos({\frac {-44+3{\sqrt {5}}}{61}})\approx 127.686\,523\,427\,48^{\circ }$. The ratio between the lengths of the long and short edges is ${\frac {31+5{\sqrt {5}}}{22}}\approx 1.917\,288\,176\,70$.
