The rhombs {(r,R)2} have vertex angles r = arccos(1/sqrt(5)) = 63.434949° resp. R = arccos(-1/sqrt(5)) = 116.565051°. Esp. rr : RR = (1+sqrt(5))/2.

All a = rr and b = RR edges, provided in the below description, only qualify as pseudo edges wrt. the full polyhedron. Edge size used here is rR = x = 1.
