  2. Truncated cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_cube

    In geometry, the truncated cube, or truncated hexahedron, is an Archimedean solid. It has 14 regular faces (6 octagonal and 8 triangular), 36 edges, and 24 vertices. If the truncated cube has unit edge length, its dual triakis octahedron has edges of lengths 2 and δ S +1, where δ S is the silver ratio, √ 2 +1.

  3. Regular dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_dodecahedron

    If the edge length of a regular dodecahedron is , the radius of a circumscribed sphere (one that touches the regular dodecahedron at all vertices), the radius of an inscribed sphere (tangent to each of the regular dodecahedron's faces), and the midradius (one that touches the middle of each edge) are: [21] =, =, =. Given a regular dodecahedron ...

  4. Cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube

    As mentioned above, the cube has eight vertices, twelve edges, and six faces; each element in a matrix's diagonal is denoted as 8, 12, and 6. The first column of the middle row indicates that there are two vertices in (i.e., at the extremes of) each edge, denoted as 2; the middle column of the first row indicates that three edges meet at each ...

  5. Sphere - Wikipedia

    For most practical purposes, the volume inside a sphere inscribed in a cube can be approximated as 52.4% of the volume of the cube, since V = ⁠ π / 6 ⁠ d 3, where d is the diameter of the sphere and also the length of a side of the cube and ⁠ π / 6 ⁠ ≈ 0.5236.

  6. Rhombic dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombic_dodecahedron

    the radius of the sphere passing through the eight order three vertices is exactly equal to the length of the sides: = The surface area A and the volume V of the rhombic dodecahedron with edge length a are: [ 4 ] A = 8 2 a 2 ≈ 11.314 a 2 , V = 16 3 9 a 3 ≈ 3.079 a 3 . {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}A&=8{\sqrt {2}}a^{2}&\approx 11.314a^{2 ...

    Let φ be the golden ratio.The 12 points given by (0, ±1, ±φ) and cyclic permutations of these coordinates are the vertices of a regular icosahedron.Its dual regular dodecahedron, whose edges intersect those of the icosahedron at right angles, has as vertices the 8 points (±1, ±1, ±1) together with the 12 points (0, ±φ, ± ⁠ 1 / φ ⁠) and cyclic permutations of these coordinates.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_exhaustion

    Proposition 11: The volume of a cone (or cylinder) of the same height is proportional to the area of the base. [6] Proposition 12: The volume of a cone (or cylinder) that is similar to another is proportional to the cube of the ratio of the diameters of the bases. [7] Proposition 18: The volume of a sphere is proportional to the cube of its ...

  9. Spherical lune - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_lune

    Each vertex of {p,q} defines an edge in the hosotope and adjacent pairs of those edges define lune faces. Or more specifically, the regular hosotope {2,4,3}, has 2 vertices, 8 180° arc edges in a cube , {4,3}, vertex figure between the two vertices, 12 lune faces, {2} π/4,π/3 , between pairs of adjacent edges, and 6 hosohedral cells, {2,p ...
