In geometry, the small retrosnub icosicosidodecahedron is a nonconvex uniform polyhedron, indexed as U₇₂.

[edit] Cartesian coordinates

Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a small retrosnub icosicosidodecahedron are all the even permutations of

(±½(−1/τ−√(3τ−2)), 0, ±½(3−τ√(3τ−2)))

(±½(1/τ−√(3τ−2)), ±1, ±½(1+2/τ−τ√(3τ−2)))

(±½(τ²−√(3τ−2)), ±1/τ, ±½(1−τ√(3τ−2)))

where τ = (1+√5)/2 is the golden ratio (sometimes written φ).
