This example demonstrates how to construct a star polygon using the geometric properties of an icosahedron. Key math concepts include polygons, solid geometry, and geometric construction. GeoGebra commands and objects used are Icosahedron, Centroid, Intersect, and Polygon. Suitable for high school students and teachers for learning and teaching solid geometry and geometric constructions.
