  2. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    Graphs of surface area, A against volume, V of the Platonic solids and a sphere, showing that the surface area decreases for rounder shapes, and the surface-area-to-volume ratio decreases with increasing volume. Their intercepts with the dashed lines show that when the volume increases 8 (2³) times, the surface area increases 4 (2²) times.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid

    The volume is computed as F times the volume of the pyramid whose base is a regular p-gon and whose height is the inradius r. That is, =. The following table lists the various radii of the Platonic solids together with their surface area and volume.

  6. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A solid figure is the region of 3D space bounded by a two-dimensional closed surface; for example, a solid ball consists of a sphere and its interior. Solid geometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solids, including pyramids , prisms (and other polyhedrons ), cubes , cylinders , cones (and truncated cones ).

  9. Truncated icosahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_icosahedron

    The surface area and the volume of the truncated icosahedron of edge length are: [2] = (+ +) = +. The sphericity of a polyhedron describes how closely a polyhedron resembles a sphere. It can be defined as the ratio of the surface area of a sphere with the same volume to the polyhedron's surface area, from which the value is between 0 and 1.
