    Thank you MD65536, That's it! Regards, TAR Do the wedges have a name? A pyramid with a rounded base? Or is there some name for the curvature being 1/12th of a sphere?

    Dividing a sphere into twelve "identical" shapes.

    tar posted a topic in Mathematics
    A few days ago I solved a challenge I had made myself, and think the division is neat, with a lot of nice symmetries and such, but several searches on the web and I have not found its name, or a breakdown of it, to study the angles and descriptions and such. So I am presenting it here, in the hopes that someone will recognize it, and point me to a link with its description. Its made of clay and was done by eye with pen and steak knife, so its not exact, but it works. What is this division called? Regards, TAR
