| Properties |
In geometry, a 10-simplex is a self-dual regular 10-polytope. It has 11 vertices, 55 edges, 165 triangle faces, 330 tetrahedral cells, 462 5-cell 4-faces, 462 5-simplex 5-faces, 330 6-simplex 6-faces, 165 7-simplex 7-faces, 55 8-simplex 8-faces, and 11 9-simplex 9-faces. Its dihedral angle is cos−1(1/10), or approximately 84.26°.
It can also be called a hendecaxennon, or hendeca-10-tope, as an 11-facetted polytope in 10-dimensions. Acronym: ux
The name hendecaxennon is derived from hendeca for 11 facets in Greek and -xenn (variation of ennea for nine), having 9-dimensional facets, and -on.
Coordinates
The Cartesian coordinates of the vertices of an origin-centered regular 10-simplex having edge length 2 are:
:\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ \sqrt{1/28},\ \sqrt{1/21},\ \sqrt{1/15},\ \sqrt{1/10},\ \sqrt{1/6},\ \sqrt{1/3},\ \pm1\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ \sqrt{1/28},\ \sqrt{1/21},\ \sqrt{1/15},\ \sqrt{1/10},\ \sqrt{1/6},\ -2\sqrt{1/3},\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ \sqrt{1/28},\ \sqrt{1/21},\ \sqrt{1/15},\ \sqrt{1/10},\ -\sqrt{3/2},\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ \sqrt{1/28},\ \sqrt{1/21},\ \sqrt{1/15},\ -2\sqrt{2/5},\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ \sqrt{1/28},\ \sqrt{1/21},\ -\sqrt{5/3},\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ \sqrt{1/28},\ -\sqrt{12/7},\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ 1/6,\ -\sqrt{7/4},\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ \sqrt{1/45},\ -4/3,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(\sqrt{1/55},\ -3\sqrt{1/5},\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right) :\left(-\sqrt{20/11},\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0,\ 0\right)
More simply, the vertices of the 10-simplex can be positioned in 11-space as permutations of (0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1). This construction is based on facets of the 11-orthoplex.
