2. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

   The volume of a geometric cube is the cube of its side length, giving rise to the name. The inverse operation that consists of finding a number whose cube is n is called extracting the cube root of n. It determines the side of the cube of a given volume. It is also n raised to the one-third power. The graph of the cube function is known as the ...

3. Square–cube law - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square–cube_law

   For example, a cube with a side length of 1 meter has a surface area of 6 m 2 and a volume of 1 m 3. If the sides of the cube were multiplied by 2, its surface area would be multiplied by the square of 2 and become 24 m 2. Its volume would be multiplied by the cube of 2 and become 8 m 3. The original cube (1 m sides) has a surface area to ...

4. Two-cube calendar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-cube_calendar

   A puzzle about the two-cube calendar was described in Gardner's column in Scientific American. [1] [2] In the puzzle discussed in Mathematical Circus (1992), two visible faces of one cube have digits 1 and 2 on them, and three visible faces of another cube have digits 3, 4, 5 on them. The cubes are arranged so that their front faces indicate ...

5. Volume - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

   Some SI units of volume to scale and approximate corresponding mass of water. To ease calculations, a unit of volume is equal to the volume occupied by a unit cube (with a side length of one). Because the volume occupies three dimensions, if the metre (m) is chosen as a unit of length, the corresponding unit of volume is the cubic metre (m 3).

6. Menger sponge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menger_sponge

   Divide every face of the cube into nine squares in a similar manner to a Rubik's Cube. This sub-divides the cube into 27 smaller cubes. Remove the smaller cube in the middle of each face, and remove the smaller cube in the center of the larger cube, leaving 20 smaller cubes. This is a level-1 Menger sponge (resembling a void cube).

7. Mathematics - Wikipedia

   Some students studying math may develop an apprehension or fear about their performance in the subject. This is known as math anxiety or math phobia, and is considered the most prominent of the disorders impacting academic performance. Math anxiety can develop due to various factors such as parental and teacher attitudes, social stereotypes ...

8. Cuisenaire rods - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisenaire_rods

   Cuisenaire rods illustrating the factors of ten A demonstration the first pair of amicable numbers, (220,284). Cuisenaire rods are mathematics learning aids for pupils that provide an interactive, hands-on [1] way to explore mathematics and learn mathematical concepts, such as the four basic arithmetical operations, working with fractions and finding divisors.

9. Doubling the cube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubling_the_cube

   In algebraic terms, doubling a unit cube requires the construction of a line segment of length x, where x 3 = 2; in other words, x = , the cube root of two. This is because a cube of side length 1 has a volume of 1 3 = 1 , and a cube of twice that volume (a volume of 2) has a side length of the cube root of 2.
