Geometry
- The symmetry group of the tiling is 2*22 (cmm).
- All the internal angles of the constituent polygons are a multiple of 36°.
- Contains 10 regular two-pointed star polygons with vertex angle of 36°.
- Contains 23 regular two-pointed star polygons with vertex angle of 72°.
- Contains two regular pentagons.
- Contains one regular 10-pointed star polygon with vertex angle of 72°.
- There are 11 non-regular reflective tiles (including one kite) and one reflective pair.
- The tiling satisfies the interlace condition and has 8 finite interlaces and no infinite interlace with straight cross-overs.
