COMMENTS
| If O is the center of a regular tetrahedron ABCD, then the central angle
AOB is this number; exact value is pi-arccos(1/3). The (minimal) central
angle of the other four regular polyhedra are as follows:
cube, A137914
octahedron, A019669
dodecahedron, A156547
icosahedron, A105199.

FORMULA
| Start with vertices (1,1,1), (1,-1,-1,), (-1,1,-1), and (1,-1,1) and
apply the formula for cosine of the angle between two vectors.
