  2. Prism (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    An oblique prism is a prism in which the joining edges and faces are not perpendicular to the base faces. Example: a parallelepiped is an oblique prism whose base is a parallelogram, or equivalently a polyhedron with six parallelogram faces. Right Prism. A right prism is a prism in which the joining edges and faces are perpendicular to the base ...

  3. Triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_prism

    Truncated right triangular prism. A truncated triangular prism is a triangular prism constructed by truncating its part at an oblique angle. As a result, the two bases are not parallel and every height has a different edge length. If the edges connecting bases are perpendicular to one of its bases, the prism is called a truncated right ...

  4. Icositetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icositetrahedron

    Icosidigonal prisms are a type of cylinder with an icosidigon as a base, with 24 faces, 66 edges, and 44 vertices. [4] Regular icosidigonal prisms have a regular icosidigon as a base, with each face a rectangle .

  5. Parallelepiped - Wikipedia

    Right rhombic prism: it has two rhombic faces and four congruent rectangular faces. ... One example has edges 271, 106, and 103, minor face diagonals 101, 266, and ...

  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). [2]

    A right frustum is a right pyramid or a right ... then a frustum becomes a prism (possibly oblique or ... Drinking glasses and some space capsules are also some examples.

  8. Triaugmented triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triaugmented_triangular_prism

    It is an example of a deltahedron, composite polyhedron, and Johnson solid. The edges and vertices of the triaugmented triangular prism form a maximal planar graph with 9 vertices and 21 edges, called the Fritsch graph. It was used by Rudolf and Gerda Fritsch to show that Alfred Kempe's attempted proof of the four color theorem was incorrect.

  9. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    Prism spectacles with a single prism perform a relative displacement of the two eyes, thereby correcting eso-, exo, hyper- or hypotropia. In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms, ambient lenses or performance glasses) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent.
