  2. Tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron

    Its surface area is four times the area of an equilateral triangle: = =. [7] The volume is one-third of the base times the height, the general formula for a pyramid; [7] this can also be found by dissecting a cube into a tetrahedron and four triangular pyramids. [8]

  3. Pyramid (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    4-dimensional hyperpyramid with a cube as base. The hyperpyramid is the generalization of a pyramid in n-dimensional space. In the case of the pyramid, one connects all vertices of the base, a polygon in a plane, to a point outside the plane, which is the peak. The pyramid's height is the distance of the peak from the plane.

  4. Snub disphenoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snub_disphenoid

    This shape is also called Siamese dodecahedron, triangular dodecahedron, trigonal dodecahedron, or dodecadeltahedron. The snub disphenoid can be visualized as an atom cluster surrounding a central atom, that is the dodecahedral molecular geometry .

  5. Tesseract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesseract

    In geometry, a tesseract or 4-cube is a four-dimensional hypercube, analogous to a two-dimensional square and a three-dimensional cube. [1] Just as the perimeter of the square consists of four edges and the surface of the cube consists of six square faces , the hypersurface of the tesseract consists of eight cubical cells , meeting at right ...

    Triangular pyramid: Y 3 (A tetrahedron is a special pyramid) T = Y 3; O = aT (ambo tetrahedron) C = jT (join tetrahedron) I = sT (snub tetrahedron) D = gT (gyro tetrahedron) Triangular antiprism: A 3 (An octahedron is a special antiprism) O = A 3; C = dA 3; Square prism: P 4 (A cube is a special prism) C = P 4; Pentagonal antiprism: A 5. I = k ...

  7. Triangular bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_bipyramid

    A triangular bipyramid is a hexahedron with six triangular faces constructed by attaching two tetrahedra face-to-face. The same shape is also known as a triangular dipyramid [1] [2] or trigonal bipyramid. [3] If these tetrahedra are regular, all faces of a triangular bipyramid are equilateral.

  8. Hyperpyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperpyramid

    2-dimensional hyperpyramid with a line segment as base 4-dimensional hyperpyramid with a cube as base. In geometry, a hyperpyramid is a generalisation of the normal pyramid to n dimensions. In the case of the pyramid one connects all vertices of the base (a polygon in a plane) to a point outside the plane, which is the peak. The pyramid's ...

  9. Tetrahedral number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_number

    A pyramid with side length 5 contains 35 spheres. Each layer represents one of the first five triangular numbers. A tetrahedral number, or triangular pyramidal number, is a figurate number that represents a pyramid with a triangular base and three sides, called a tetrahedron.
