In geometry, the elongated pentagonal pyramid is one of the Johnson solids (J₉). As the name suggests, it can be constructed by elongating a pentagonal pyramid (J₂) by attaching a pentagonal prism to its base.

A Johnson solid is one of 92 strictly convex polyhedra that is composed of regular polygon faces but are not uniform polyhedra (that is, they are not Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, prisms, or antiprisms). They were named by Norman Johnson, who first listed these polyhedra in 1966.^[1]

Formulae

The following formulae for the height (${\displaystyle H}$), surface area (${\displaystyle A}$) and volume (${\displaystyle V}$) can be used if all faces are regular, with edge length ${\displaystyle L}$:^[2]

${\displaystyle H=L\cdot \left(1+{\sqrt {\frac {5-{\sqrt {5))}{10))}\right)\approx L\cdot 1.525731112}$

${\displaystyle A=L^{2}\cdot {\frac {20+5{\sqrt {3))+{\sqrt {25+10{\sqrt {5))))}{4))\approx L^{2}\cdot 8.88554091}$

${\displaystyle V=L^{3}\cdot \left({\frac {5+{\sqrt {5))+6{\sqrt {25+10{\sqrt {5))))}{24))\right)\approx L^{3}\cdot 2.021980233}$

Dual polyhedron

The dual of the elongated pentagonal pyramid has 11 faces: 5 triangular, 1 pentagonal and 5 trapezoidal. It is topologically identical to the Johnson solid.
