In geometry an Archimedean solid or semi-regular solid is a semi-regular convex polyhedron made of two or more types of regular polygons meeting in identical vertices.
The snub dodecahedron is an Archimedean solid consisting of 92 faces (80 triangular, 12 pentagonal), 150 edges, and 60 vertices.
In geometry, the truncated cube can be defined as an Archimedean solid. It consists of 14 regular faces (6 octagonal and 8 triangular), 36 edges, and 24 vertices.
The Truncated Icosahedron is one of the 13 known Archimedean solids. They were not always made using this pattern and the advanced modern balls are no longer made with this pattern.
No, Archimedes did not invent the lawn mower even though one of his attributed inventions paved the way for that invention 2,000-plus years later. The lawn mower invented by an English textile mill engineer in 1830 had the name Archimedean revolving cutter mower. The mower in question included a revolving screw-shaped blade inside a cylinder, considered the essential design of the Archimedean screw attributed to Archimedes' (287 B.C.-212 B.C.) inventiveness.
