No. It is a semi-regular polyhedron. Explanation. The truncated icosahedron is a polyhedron that can be constructed from an icosahedron with the 12 vertices truncated (cut off) such that one third of each edge is cut off at each of both ends. This creates 12 new pentagon faces, and leaves the original 20 triangle faces as regular hexagons A regular polyhedron is a polyhedron whose faces are congruent regular polygons. The truncated icosahedron is NOT a regular polyhedron, it is a semiregular polyhedron. It is a uniform polyhedron.

What kind of polyhedron is a official soccer ball?
It is a truncated icosahedron projected onto a sphere.
Why decahedron is not a regular polyhedron?
It is not a regular polyhedron because it has unequal sides

A soccer ball wt 12 regular hexagons and 12 regular pentagons how many verT ices does his polyhedron have?
A soccer ball (a.k.a. a truncated icosahedron) does have 12 pentagonal faces but does not have 12 hexagonal faces, it has 20. It will have 60 vertices.
Is there another name for the truncated icosahedron?
It's a polyhedron, so I guess that would be another way to describe it.
Is a sphere a polyhedron?
No, a sphere is not a polyhedron.A polyhedron is a three-dimensional geometric figure whose sides are polygons.A regular polyhedron is a polyhedron whose faces are all congruent regular polygons.
Why is a rectangle polyhedron not regular polyhedron?
The sides of a rectangle are not all equal so a rectangle is not a regular polygon. And, as a consequence, any 3-dimensional shape made from rectangles cannot be a regular polyhedron.
Is a decahedron a regular polyhedron?
No.
Is a cylinder a regular polyhedron?
No, it is not.
Do 20 equal sides form a polyhedron?
No. A polyhedron is 3 dimensional. You have a regular polygon, regular because the sides are equal. If you asked about 20 surfaces, then it would be a polyhedron.
Is a decahedral a regular polygon?
No it isn't a regular polyhedron
Is the tetrahedron a regular polyhedron?
Not necessarily. If all faces are equilateral triangles (all edges are equal length) then it is a regular polyhedron.
