  2. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The bare term cylinder often refers to a solid cylinder with circular ends perpendicular to the axis, that is, a right circular cylinder, as shown in the figure. The cylindrical surface without the ends is called an open cylinder. The formulae for the surface area and the volume of a right circular cylinder have been known from early antiquity.

  3. Platonic solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid

    In geometry, a Platonic solid is a convex, regular polyhedron in three-dimensional Euclidean space.Being a regular polyhedron means that the faces are congruent (identical in shape and size) regular polygons (all angles congruent and all edges congruent), and the same number of faces meet at each vertex.

    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. Hexagonal prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_prism

    Prisms are polyhedrons; this polyhedron has 8 faces, 18 edges, and 12 vertices. [1] Since it has 8 faces, it is an octahedron. However, the term octahedron is primarily used to refer to the regular octahedron, which has eight triangular faces.

  6. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    A right circular cylinder is a cylinder whose generatrices are perpendicular to the bases. Thus, in a right circular cylinder, the generatrix and the height have the same measurements. [ 1 ] It is also less often called a cylinder of revolution, because it can be obtained by rotating a rectangle of sides r {\displaystyle r} and g {\displaystyle ...

    In 3-dimensions it will be a zig-zag skew hexadecagon and can be seen in the vertices and side edges of an octagonal antiprism with the same D 8d, [2 +,16] symmetry, order 32. The octagrammic antiprism , s{2,16/3} and octagrammic crossed-antiprism , s{2,16/5} also have regular skew octagons.

    Take a polygon with n vertices, n edges. Its prism has 2n vertices, 3n edges, and 2 + n faces. Take a polyhedron with V vertices, E edges, and F faces. Its prism has 2V vertices, 2E + V edges, 2F + E faces, and 2 + F cells. Take a polychoron with V vertices, E edges, F faces, and C cells. Its prism has 2V vertices, 2E + V edges, 2F + E faces ...

    The generation of a bicylinder Calculating the volume of a bicylinder. A bicylinder generated by two cylinders with radius r has the volume =, and the surface area [1] [6] =.. The upper half of a bicylinder is the square case of a domical vault, a dome-shaped solid based on any convex polygon whose cross-sections are similar copies of the polygon, and analogous formulas calculating the volume ...
