| Dual polyhedron Dual polyhedron In geometry, polyhedra are associated into pairs called duals, where the vertices of one correspond to the faces of the other. The dual of the dual is the original polyhedron. The dual of a polyhedron with equivalent vertices is one with equivalent faces, and of one with equivalent edges is another... |

This polyhedron can be constructed by taking a tetragonal trapezohedron
Tetragonal trapezohedron
The tetragonal trapezohedron or deltohedron is the second in an infinite series of face-uniform polyhedra which are dual to the antiprisms. It has eight faces which are congruent kites.- External links :*...
