In geometry, the trigyrate rhombicosidodecahedron is one of the Johnson solids ({{math|J{{sub|75}}}}). It contains 20 triangles, 30 squares and 12 pentagons. It is also a canonical polyhedron.

{{Johnson solid}}

It can be constructed as a rhombicosidodecahedron with three pentagonal cupolae rotated through 36 degrees. Related Johnson solids are:
