  2. Net (polyhedron) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_(polyhedron)

    For example, in the case of a cube, if the points are on adjacent faces one candidate for the shortest path is the path crossing the common edge; the shortest path of this kind is found using a net where the two faces are also adjacent. Other candidates for the shortest path are through the surface of a third face adjacent to both (of which ...

  3. Cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube

    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.

  4. Tesseract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesseract

    The Dalí cross, a net of a tesseract The tesseract can be unfolded into eight cubes into 3D space, just as the cube can be unfolded into six squares into 2D space.. In geometry, a tesseract or 4-cube is a four-dimensional hypercube, analogous to a two-dimensional square and a three-dimensional cube. [1]

    For example, all the faces of a cube lie in one orbit, while all the edges lie in another. If all the elements of a given dimension, say all the faces, lie in the same orbit, the figure is said to be transitive on that orbit. For example, a cube is face-transitive, while a truncated cube has two symmetry orbits of faces.

  6. Common net - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_net

    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]

    Net In geometry , the Rhombicosidodecahedron is an Archimedean solid , one of thirteen convex isogonal nonprismatic solids constructed of two or more types of regular polygon faces . It has a total of 62 faces: 20 regular triangular faces, 30 square faces, 12 regular pentagonal faces, with 60 vertices , and 120 edges .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_mapping

    The lower left image shows a scene with a viewpoint marked with a black dot. The upper image shows the net of the cube mapping as seen from that viewpoint, and the lower right image shows the cube superimposed on the original scene. In computer graphics, cube mapping is a method of environment mapping that uses the six faces of a cube as the ...
