A rhombicuboctahedron is a uniform three-dimensional polyhedron that can be constructed by cantellating a cube or octahedron
As a cantellated octahedron, it has the same symmetry group as the octahedron, namely octahedral symmetry (Oh).
The dual of the cuboctahedron is called a deltoidal icositetrahedron.
The Bowers acronym for the cuboctahedron is sirco.
Structure and Sections[]
On each vertex of the cuboctahedron, one triangle and three squares join.
