2. 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 ).

3. Surface area - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_area

   A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...

4. Frustum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frustum

   The volume of a conical or pyramidal frustum is the volume of the solid before slicing its "apex" off, minus the volume of this "apex": =, where B 1 and B 2 are the base and top areas, and h 1 and h 2 are the perpendicular heights from the apex to the base and top planes. Considering that

5. Substrate (materials science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substrate_(materials_science)

   Substrate is a term used in materials science and engineering to describe the base material on which processing is conducted. Surfaces have different uses, including producing new film or layers of material and being a base to which another substance is bonded.

6. Spherical segment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_segment

   In geometry, a spherical segment is the solid defined by cutting a sphere or a ball with a pair of parallel planes. It can be thought of as a spherical cap with the top truncated, and so it corresponds to a spherical frustum. The surface of the spherical segment (excluding the bases) is called spherical zone. Geometric parameters for spherical ...

7. Base (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   The extended base of a triangle (a particular case of an extended side) is the line that contains the base. When the triangle is obtuse and the base is chosen to be one of the sides adjacent to the obtuse angle , then the altitude dropped perpendicularly from the apex to the base intersects the extended base outside of the triangle.
