In geometry, the truncated cube, or truncated hexahedron, is an Archimedean solid. It has 14 regular faces (6 octagonal and 8 triangular ), 36 edges, and 24 vertices. If the truncated cube has unit edge length, its dual triakis octahedron has edges of lengths 2 and δ S +1 , where δ S is the silver ratio, √ 2 +1.
The middle image is the uniform truncated cube; it is represented by a Schläfli symbol t{p,q,...}. A bitruncation is a deeper truncation, removing all the original edges, but leaving an interior part of the original faces. Example: a truncated octahedron is a bitruncated cube: t{3,4} = 2t{4,3}.
In eight-dimensional geometry, a truncated 8-cube is a convex uniform 8-polytope, being a truncation of the regular 8-cube. There are unique 7 degrees of truncation for the 8-cube. Vertices of the truncation 8-cube are located as pairs on the edge of the 8-cube. Vertices of the bitruncated 8-cube are located on the square faces of the 8-cube.
Piero della Francesca (1415 – 1492) rediscovered the five truncations of the Platonic solids—truncated tetrahedron, truncated octahedron, truncated cube, truncated dodecahedron, and truncated icosahedron—and included illustrations and calculations of their metric properties in his book De quinque corporibus regularibus. He also discussed ...

In seven-dimensional geometry, a truncated 7-cube is a convex uniform 7-polytope, being a truncation of the regular 7-cube. There are 6 truncations for the 7-cube. Vertices of the truncated 7-cube are located as pairs on the edge of the 7-cube. Vertices of the bitruncated 7-cube are located on the square faces
In five-dimensional geometry, a truncated 5-cube is a convex uniform 5-polytope, being a truncation of the regular 5-cube. There are four unique truncations of the 5-cube. Vertices of the truncated 5-cube are located as pairs on the edge of the 5-cube. Vertices of the bitruncated 5-cube are located on the square faces of the 5-cube.
