  2. Cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid

    A rectangular cuboid (sometimes also called a "cuboid") has all right angles and equal opposite rectangular faces. 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 ...

  3. Face (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Face_(geometry)

    where V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges, and F is the number of faces. This equation is known as Euler's polyhedron formula. Thus the number of faces is 2 more than the excess of the number of edges over the number of vertices. For example, a cube has 12 edges and 8 vertices, and hence 6 faces.

  4. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A parallelepiped where all edges are the same length; A cube, except that its faces are not squares but rhombi; Cuboid: A convex polyhedron bounded by six quadrilateral faces, whose polyhedral graph is the same as that of a cube [4] Some sources also require that each of the faces is a rectangle (so each pair of adjacent faces meets in a right ...

  5. Rectangular cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangular_cuboid

    A rectangular cuboid with integer edges, as well as integer face diagonals, is called an Euler brick; for example with sides 44, 117, and 240. A perfect cuboid is an Euler brick whose space diagonal is also an integer. It is currently unknown whether a perfect cuboid actually exists. [6] The number of different nets for a simple cube is 11 ...

  6. Cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube

    Like other cuboids, every face of a cube has four vertices, each of which connects with three congruent lines. These edges form square faces, making the dihedral angle of a cube between every two adjacent squares being the interior angle of a square, 90°. Hence, the cube has six faces, twelve edges, and eight vertices.

  7. List of mathematical shapes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_shapes

    For example, in a polyhedron (3-dimensional polytope), a face is a facet, an edge is a ridge, and a vertex is a peak. Vertex figure : not itself an element of a polytope, but a diagram showing how the elements meet.

  8. List of uniform polyhedra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_uniform_polyhedra

    In geometry, a uniform polyhedron is a polyhedron which has regular polygons as faces and is vertex-transitive (transitive on its vertices, isogonal, i.e. there is an isometry mapping any vertex onto any other). It follows that all vertices are congruent, and the polyhedron has a high degree of reflectional and rotational symmetry.

  9. Truncation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_(geometry)

    Example: an octahedron is a birectification of a cube: {3,4} = 2r{4,3}. Another type of truncation, cantellation, cuts edges and vertices, removing the original edges, replacing them with rectangles, removing the original vertices, and replacing them with the faces of the dual of the original regular polyhedra or tiling.
