The non-regular (ffx)-triangles {(t,T,T)} are faceted regular pentagons. Its vertex angles are t = 36° resp. T = 72°. Their longer side tT is scaled by the golden ratio f = (1+sqrt(5))/2 = 1.618034. The regular triangles use the f-scaled edges only.

This polyhedron can be seen as a special pyritohedral symmetric variant of ike. The according more general variant is oca cao aoc&#zd, then with d = sqrt[(a2-ac+c2)/2].
