    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.

  3. Rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangle

    A rectangle is a rectilinear polygon: its sides meet at right angles. A rectangle in the plane can be defined by five independent degrees of freedom consisting, for example, of three for position (comprising two of translation and one of rotation), one for shape (aspect ratio), and one for overall size (area).

  4. Hyperrectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperrectangle

    A four-dimensional orthotope is likely a hypercuboid. [7]The special case of an n-dimensional orthotope where all edges have equal length is the n-cube or hypercube. [2]By analogy, the term "hyperrectangle" can refer to Cartesian products of orthogonal intervals of other kinds, such as ranges of keys in database theory or ranges of integers, rather than real numbers.

  5. Pronic number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pronic_number

    A pronic number is a number that is the product of two consecutive integers, that is, a number of the form (+). [1] The study of these numbers dates back to Aristotle.They are also called oblong numbers, heteromecic numbers, [2] or rectangular numbers; [3] however, the term "rectangular number" has also been applied to the composite numbers.

  6. Golden rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rectangle

    In geometry, a golden rectangle is a rectangle with side lengths in golden ratio +:, or ⁠:, ⁠ with ⁠ ⁠ approximately equal to 1.618 or 89/55. Golden rectangles exhibit a special form of self-similarity : if a square is added to the long side, or removed from the short side, the result is a golden rectangle as well.

  7. Cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid

    General cuboids have many different types. When all of the rectangular cuboid's edges are equal in length, it results in a cube, with six square faces and adjacent faces meeting at right angles. [1] [3] Along with the rectangular cuboids, parallelepiped is a cuboid with six parallelogram. Rhombohedron is a cuboid with six rhombus faces.

  8. Mass point geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_point_geometry

    Mass Point - A mass point is a pair (,), also written as , including a mass, , and an ordinary point, on a plane. Coincidence - We say that two points m P {\displaystyle mP} and n Q {\displaystyle nQ} coincide if and only if m = n {\displaystyle m=n} and P = Q {\displaystyle P=Q} .

  9. 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.
