Calling all geometers:
I want to make a tetrahedron out of square cross-section sticks. I want a corner of the stick to define the edge of the tetrahedron - i.e., a plane through the diagonal of the stick will pass through the center of the tetrahedron. (I've already made one where a flat on the stick defines the edge - the math is easy on that one).
What I can't figure out (and I've spent a frustrating day in the shop trying) is:
What are the angles on the face of a square stick that work?
The critical information:
The central angle is 109.48 degrees. That is, the angle from the center of the tetrahedron to any two vertices is 109.48.
Any help would be much appreciated!
