COMMENTS

Dihedral angle in radians of regular tetrahedron.
Arccos(1/3) is the central angle of a cube, made by the center and two neighboring vertices. - Clark Kimberling, Feb 10 2009
Also the complementary tetrahedral angle, Pi-A156546, and therefore related to the magic angle (Pi-2*A195696). - Stanislav Sykora, Jan 23 2014
Polar angle (or apex angle) of the cone that subtends exactly one third of the full solid angle. - Stanislav Sykora, Feb 20 2014
Also the acute angle in the rhombi and isosceles trapezoids in the trapezo-rhombic dodecahedron. - Eric W. Weisstein, Jan 09 2019
