Orthographic projections in the E₆ Coxeter plane
2₂₁	1₂₂

In 6-dimensional geometry, there are 39 uniform polytopes with E₆ symmetry. The two simplest forms are the 2₂₁ and 1₂₂ polytopes, composed of 27 and 72 vertices respectively.

They can be visualized as symmetric orthographic projections in Coxeter planes of the E₆ Coxeter group, and other subgroups.

Graphs

Symmetric orthographic projections of these 39 polytopes can be made in the E₆, D₅, D₄, D₂, A₅, A₄, A₃ Coxeter planes. A_k has k+1 symmetry, D_k has 2(k-1) symmetry, and E₆ has 12 symmetry.

Six symmetry planes graphs are shown for 9 of the 39 polytopes in the E₆ symmetry. The vertices and edges drawn with vertices colored by the number of overlapping vertices in each projective position.
