Archimedean solids

If you use more than one type of regular polygon together, you can make the Archimedean solids. Obviously these are named after Archimedes and only 13 of them exist.

The 13 Archimedean solids:

Cuboctahedron

Icosidodecahedron

Rhombicosidodecahedron

Rhombicuboctahedron

Snub cube

Snub dodecahedron

Truncated cube

Truncated cuboctahedron

Truncated dodecahedron

Truncated icosahedron

Truncated icosidodecahedron

Truncated octahedron

Truncated tetrahedron

The Archimedean solids are referred to as the semiregular polyhedra, because they are not 100% regular like the platonic solids are. Although they are not 100% regular, all of the edges in these are also exactly the same length. Basically they are the next most regular 3D shapes after the Platonic solids.
