  2. Tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron

    The volume of a tetrahedron can be obtained in many ways. It can be given by using the formula of the pyramid's volume: =. where is the base' area and is the height from the base to the apex. This applies for each of the four choices of the base, so the distances from the apices to the opposite faces are inversely proportional to the areas of ...

    The final line can be rewritten to obtain Heron's formula for the area of a triangle given three sides, which was known to Archimedes prior. [8] In the case of =, the quantity gives the volume of a tetrahedron, which we will denote by .

  9. Euler characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_characteristic

    This equation, stated by Euler in 1758, [2] is known as Euler's polyhedron formula. [3] It corresponds to the Euler characteristic of the sphere (i.e. χ = 2 {\displaystyle \ \chi =2\ } ), and applies identically to spherical polyhedra .
