  2. Prism (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    Right Prism. A right prism is a prism in which the joining edges and faces are perpendicular to the base faces. [5] This applies if and only if all the joining faces are rectangular. The dual of a right n-prism is a right n-bipyramid. A right prism (with rectangular sides) with regular n-gon bases has Schläfli symbol { }×{n}.

  3. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A solid figure is the region of 3D space bounded by a two-dimensional closed surface; for example, a solid ball consists of a sphere and its interior. Solid geometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solids, including pyramids, prisms (and other polyhedrons), cubes, cylinders, cones (and truncated cones). [2]

  4. Rectangular cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangular_cuboid

    A rectangular cuboid is a convex polyhedron with six rectangle faces. The dihedral angles of a rectangular cuboid are all right angles, and its opposite faces are congruent. [2] Because of the faces' orthogonality, the rectangular cuboid is classified as convex orthogonal polyhedron. [3] By definition, this makes it a right rectangular prism.

  5. Parallelepiped - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelepiped

    Right rhombic prism: it has two rhombic faces and four congruent rectangular faces. Note: the fully rhombic special case, with two rhombic faces and four congruent square faces ( a = b = c ) {\displaystyle (a=b=c)} , has the same name, and the same symmetry group (D 2h , order 8).

  6. Cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid

    General cuboids have many different types. When all of the rectangular cuboid's edges are equal in length, it results in a cube, with six square faces and adjacent faces meeting at right angles. [1] [3] Along with the rectangular cuboids, parallelepiped is a cuboid with six parallelogram. Rhombohedron is a cuboid with six rhombus faces.

  7. Wedge (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    A wedge is a polyhedron of a rectangular base, with the faces are two isosceles triangles and two trapezoids that meet at the top of an edge. [1]. A prismatoid is defined as a polyhedron where its vertices lie on two parallel planes, with its lateral faces are triangles, trapezoids, and parallelograms; [2] the wedge is an example of prismatoid because of its top edge is parallel to the ...

  8. Hyperrectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperrectangle

    A four-dimensional orthotope is likely a hypercuboid. [7]The special case of an n-dimensional orthotope where all edges have equal length is the n-cube or hypercube. [2]By analogy, the term "hyperrectangle" can refer to Cartesian products of orthogonal intervals of other kinds, such as ranges of keys in database theory or ranges of integers, rather than real numbers.

  9. Pentagonal bipyramid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_bipyramid

    It is an example of a composite polyhedron because it is constructed by attaching two regular pentagonal pyramids. [ 11 ] [ 2 ] A pentagonal bipyramid's surface area A {\displaystyle A} is 10 times that of all triangles, and its volume V {\displaystyle V} can be ascertained by slicing it into two pentagonal pyramids and adding their volume.
