| − | If A and B are vertices of a polyhedron, define the distance d(A, B) to be the minimum number of edges of the polyhedron one must traverse in order to connect A and B. For example, <math>\overline{AB}</math> is an edge of the polyhedron, then d(A, B) = 1, but if <math>\overline{AC}</math> and <math>\overline{CB}</math> are edges and <math>\overline{AB}</math> is not an edge, then d(A, B) = 2. Let Q, R, and S be randomly chosen distinct vertices of a regular icosahedron (regular polyhedron made up of 20 equilateral triangles). What is the probability that <math>d(Q, R) > d(R, S)</math>?
