You start with a quadrilateral based bipyramid, which has six vertices. At each vertex, remove the tip in the form of a quadrilateral based pyramid. You will be left with a truncated octahedron.
A truncated octahedron has 14 faces.
A truncated octahedron has 24 vertices.
A truncated octahedron has 24 vertices.
Start with an octahedron in the form of a quadrilateral based dipyramid a regular octahedron is a special case of this). This shape has six vertices - chop these off so as to remove a quadrilateral based pyramid. You will be left with a truncated octahedron. It is an octahedron which has been truncated (shortened) by cutting off its extremities.
A truncated Octahedron has 36 edges.

The next of an octahedron looks like a series of 8 triangles.
In geometry, an octahedron is a polyhedron with eight sides. A regular octahedron is the dual polyhedron of a cube; It is a rectified tetrahedron.
The faces of octahedra are triangles.
The answer will depend on how many corners have been cut off in the truncation process.
It look like two square based pyramids stuck together on their square sides.
