Triakis 2001-02-17
From Anne Grant:
I am a grade 8 teacher and have come across the term "Triakis" used with Tetrahedron, octahedron, and hexahedron. What does this term refer to, and what's the difference between a triakis polyhedron and one that is not?

I'd also like to know what is meant by the term antiprism, as opposed to prism.
