  2. Tesseract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesseract

    The edge-first parallel projection of the tesseract into three-dimensional space has an envelope in the shape of a hexagonal prism. Six cells project onto rhombic prisms, which are laid out in the hexagonal prism in a way analogous to how the faces of the 3D cube project onto six rhombs in a hexagonal envelope under vertex-first projection.

  3. List of Johnson solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Johnson_solids

    The following table contains the 92 Johnson solids, with edge length . The table includes the solid's enumeration (denoted as J n {\displaystyle J_{n}} ). [ 7 ] It also includes the number of vertices, edges, and faces of each solid, as well as its symmetry group , surface area A {\displaystyle A} , and volume V {\displaystyle V} .

  4. Hypercube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercube

    In geometry, a hypercube is an n-dimensional analogue of a square (n = 2) and a cube (n = 3); the special case for n = 4 is known as a tesseract.It is a closed, compact, convex figure whose 1-skeleton consists of groups of opposite parallel line segments aligned in each of the space's dimensions, perpendicular to each other and of the same length.

  5. 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 ).

  6. Honeycomb (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    In geometry, a honeycomb is a space filling or close packing of polyhedral or higher-dimensional cells, so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical tiling or tessellation in any number of dimensions. Its dimension can be clarified as n-honeycomb for a honeycomb of n-dimensional space.

  7. Three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-dimensional_space

    In geometry, a three-dimensional space (3D space, 3-space or, rarely, tri-dimensional space) is a mathematical space in which three values (coordinates) are required to determine the position of a point. Most commonly, it is the three-dimensional Euclidean space, that is, the Euclidean space of dimension three, which models physical space.

  8. Rhombicosidodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombicosidodecahedron

    Therefore, the circumradius of this rhombicosidodecahedron is the common distance of these points from the origin, namely √ φ 6 +2 = √ 8φ+7 for edge length 2. For unit edge length, R must be halved, giving R = ⁠ √ 8φ+7 / 2 ⁠ = ⁠ √ 11+4 √ 5 / 2 ⁠ ≈ 2.233.

  9. Tessellation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessellation

    An edge-to-edge tiling is any polygonal tessellation where adjacent tiles only share one full side, i.e., no tile shares a partial side or more than one side with any other tile. In an edge-to-edge tiling, the sides of the polygons and the edges of the tiles are the same.
