  2. Cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid

    Etymologically, "cuboid" means "like a cube", in the sense of a convex solid which can be transformed into a cube (by adjusting the lengths of its edges and the angles between its adjacent faces). A cuboid is a convex polyhedron whose polyhedral graph is the same as that of a cube. [1] [2] General cuboids have many different types.

    At the time when biologist Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778) published the books that are now accepted as the starting point of binomial nomenclature, Latin was used in Western Europe as the common language of science, and scientific names were in Latin or Greek: Linnaeus continued this practice.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid_(disambiguation)

    A cuboid is a polyhedron with six quadrilateral faces. It may also refer to: Rectangular cuboid, a cuboid with all right angles and equal opposite faces; Cuboid (computer vision), a feature used for behavior recognition in video; Cuboid, a puzzle game for the PlayStation Network; Cuboid bone, one of seven tarsal bones in the human foot

  6. Rectangular cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangular_cuboid

    A rectangular cuboid is a convex polyhedron with six rectangle faces. The dihedral angles of a rectangular cuboid are all right angles, and its opposite faces are congruent. [2] Because of the faces' orthogonality, the rectangular cuboid is classified as convex orthogonal polyhedron. [3] By definition, this makes it a right rectangular prism.

    A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines. Students may present their science project at a science fair, so they may also call it a science fair project. Science projects may be classified into four main types.

    In the case of the body cuboid, the body (space) diagonal g is irrational. For the edge cuboid, one of the edges a, b, c is irrational. The face cuboid has one of the face diagonals d, e, f irrational. The body cuboid is commonly referred to as the Euler cuboid in honor of Leonhard Euler, who discussed this type of cuboid. [15]
