Symmetry group
  
D10h, [10,2], (*2.2.10), order 40

In geometry, a decagonal bipyramid is one of the infinite set of bipyramids, dual to the infinite prisms. If a decagonal bipyramid is to be face-transitive, all faces must be isosceles triangles.

It can be drawn as a tiling on a sphere, and represents the fundamental domains of [5,2], *5.2.2 symmetry.
