Some edges are painted in red. We say that a coloring of this kind is [i]good[/i], if for each vertex of the polyhedron, there exists an edge which concurs in that vertex and is not painted red. Moreover, we say that a coloring where some of the edges of a regular polyhedron is [i]completely good[/i], if in addition to being [i]good[/i], no face of the polyhedron has all its edges painted red. What regular polyhedrons is equal the maximum number of edges that can be painted in a [i]good[/i] color and a [i]completely good[/i]? Explain your answer.
