Catalan solids

The Catalan solids are the duals of the Archimedean solids. They are named after the Belgian mathematician Eugene Catalan (1814-1894) who first described the complete set in 1865. The Rhombic Dodecahedron and Rhombic Triacontahedron were described in 1611 by Johannes Kepler. Each Catalan solid has one type of face and a constant dihedral angle, and it possesses the same symmetry as its Archimedean dual.
