It's a polyhedron, so I guess that would be another way to describe it.
Truncated icosahedron Truncated icosahedron
it is the mathimatical name for a football.

Truncated Icosahedron
12 faces on a truncated icosahedron are pentagons. (The other 20 faces are hexagons.)
It has 60 :)

truncated icosahedron
It is a truncated icosahedron projected onto a sphere.
No. It is a semi-regular polyhedron. Explanation. The truncated icosahedron is a polyhedron that can be constructed from an icosahedron with the 12 vertices truncated (cut off) such that one third of each edge is cut off at each of both ends. This creates 12 new pentagon faces, and leaves the original 20 triangle faces as regular hexagons A regular polyhedron is a polyhedron whose faces are congruent regular polygons. The truncated icosahedron is NOT a regular polyhedron, it is a semiregular polyhedron. It is a uniform polyhedron.
A football is a truncated icosahedron consisting of 12 pentagons and 20 hegagons.
