Click below to apply a symmetry to the dodecahedron:
x=
rotate dodecahedron 120 degrees counterclockwise about the ray from the center of the dodecahedron out through the top vertex of the nearest pentagon (initially meeting edges 1,3,5).
y=
rotate dodecahedron 72 degrees counterclockwise about the ray from the center of the dodecahedron through the midpoint of the nearest face (bounded by edges 1-5 at start) of the dodecahedron.
z=
rotate dodecahedron 180 degrees counterclockwise about the ray from the center of the dodecahedron through the midpoint of the top left edge of the nearest pentagon (initially edge 1 of the green face).
BACK TO START.
