  2. Rhombicosidodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombicosidodecahedron

    If two bilunabirotundae are aligned this way on opposite sides of the rhombicosidodecahedron, then a cube can be put between the bilunabirotundae at the very center of the rhombicosidodecahedron. The rhombicosidodecahedron shares the vertex arrangement with the small stellated truncated dodecahedron , and with the uniform compounds of six or ...

    Gaussian curve with a two-dimensional domain Many shapes have metaphorical names , i.e., their names are metaphors : these shapes are named after a most common object that has it. For example, "U-shape" is a shape that resembles the letter U , a bell-shaped curve has the shape of the vertical cross section of a bell , etc.

    Place two points on two adjacent edges of a unit cube, each at a distance of 3/4 from the point where the two edges meet, and two more points symmetrically on the opposite face of the cube. Then these four points form a square with side length 3 2 4 ≈ 1.0606601. {\displaystyle {\frac {3{\sqrt {2}}}{4}}\approx 1.0606601.}

  7. Cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube

    The cube is non-composite polyhedron, meaning it is a convex polyhedron that cannot be separated into two or more regular polyhedrons. The cube can be applied to construct a new convex polyhedron by attaching another. [62] Attaching a square pyramid to each square face of a cube produces its Kleetope, a polyhedron known as the tetrakis ...

  8. Rhombicuboctahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombicuboctahedron

    After removing the edges of a cube, the squares may be joined by adding more squares adjacent between them, and the corners may be filled by the equilateral triangles. Another way to construct the rhombicuboctahedron is by attaching two regular square cupolas into the bases of a regular octagonal prism. [2] Process of expanding the ...

  9. Cuboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid

    A square frustum is a frustum with a square base, but the rest of its faces are quadrilaterals; the square frustum is formed by truncating the apex of a square pyramid. In attempting to classify cuboids by their symmetries, Robertson (1983) found that there were at least 22 different cases, "of which only about half are familiar in the shapes ...
