Nets of a cube. An elementary way to construct a cube is using its net, an arrangement of edge-joining polygons constructing a polyhedron by connecting along the edges of those polygons. Eleven nets for the cube are shown here. [24] In analytic geometry, a cube may be constructed using the Cartesian coordinate systems.

[9] [10] [11] There exist non-convex polyhedra that do not have nets, and it is possible to subdivide the faces of every convex polyhedron (for instance along a cut locus) so that the set of subdivided faces has a net. [5] In 2014 Mohammad Ghomi showed that every convex polyhedron admits a net after an affine transformation. [12]
The number of different nets for a simple cube is 11. However, this number increases significantly to at least 54 for a rectangular cuboid of three different lengths. [7]
All 11 unfoldings of the cube. A polyhedral net for the cube is necessarily a hexomino, with 11 hexominoes (shown at right) actually being nets. They appear on the right, again coloured according to their symmetry groups. A polyhedral net for the cube cannot contain the O-tetromino, nor the I-pentomino, the U-pentomino, or the V-pentomino.
Common net of a 1x1x5 and 1x2x3 cuboid. Common nets of cuboids have been deeply researched, mainly by Uehara and coworkers. To the moment, common nets of up to three cuboids have been found, It has, however, been proven that there exist infinitely many examples of nets that can be folded into more than one polyhedra. [10]
The popularity of the Cube is reflected in its strong sales—in 2022, 5.75 million units of the official Rubik’s Cube were sold globally and that figure was up 14% year-to-date, according to ...
It is a part of an infinite hypercube family. The dual of a 5-cube is the 5-orthoplex, of the infinite family of orthoplexes.. Applying an alternation operation, deleting alternating vertices of the 5-cube, creates another uniform 5-polytope, called a 5-demicube, which is also part of an infinite family called the demihypercubes.
