title: Rotunda (geometry)
text: In geometry, a rotunda is any member of a family of dihedral-symmetric polyhedra. They are similar to a cupola but instead of alternating squares and triangles, it alternates pentagons and triangles around an axis. The pentagonal rotunda is a Johnson solid. Other forms can be generated with dihedral symmetry and distorted equilateral pentagons.
