Definition

A dodecahedron is a three-dimensional geometric shape with twelve flat faces, each a regular pentagon.

Description

Dodecahedrons are part of the family of Platonic solids, known for their symmetry and aesthetic appeal. They are used in various fields, including molecular chemistry and architecture, where symmetry plays a crucial role. Understanding dodecahedrons is important in math education as it introduces students to complex geometric shapes and their properties. Teachers can use models and diagrams to demonstrate the symmetry and structure of dodecahedrons, fostering an appreciation for geometric beauty and complexity.
