The regular tetrahedron is self-dual, meaning its dual is another regular tetrahedron. The compound figure comprising two such dual tetrahedra form a stellated octahedron or stella octangula . Its interior is an octahedron , and correspondingly, a regular octahedron is the result of cutting off, from a regular tetrahedron, four regular ...
An isodynamic tetrahedron is one in which the cevians that join the vertices to the incenters of the opposite faces are concurrent, and an isogonic tetrahedron has concurrent cevians that join the vertices to the points of contact of the opposite faces with the inscribed sphere of the tetrahedron.
Isogonal, a mathematical term meaning "having similar angles", may refer to: Isogonal figure or polygon, polyhedron, polytope or tiling; Isogonal trajectory, in curve theory; Isogonal conjugate, in triangle geometry
A regular tetrahedron, an example of a solid with full tetrahedral symmetry. A regular tetrahedron has 12 rotational (or orientation-preserving) symmetries, and a symmetry order of 24 including transformations that combine a reflection and a rotation.
A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines. Students may present their science project at a science fair, so they may also call it a science fair project. Science projects may be classified into four main types.
A trirectangular tetrahedron with its base shown in green and its apex as a solid black disk. It can be constructed by a coordinate octant and a plane crossing all 3 axes away from the origin (x>0; y>0; z>0) and x/a+y/b+z/c<1. In geometry, a trirectangular tetrahedron is a tetrahedron where all three face angles at one vertex are right angles.
Other names for the same shape are isotetrahedron, [2] sphenoid, [3] bisphenoid, [3] isosceles tetrahedron, [4] equifacial tetrahedron, [5] almost regular tetrahedron, [6] and tetramonohedron. [ 7 ] All the solid angles and vertex figures of a disphenoid are the same, and the sum of the face angles at each vertex is equal to two right angles .
By definition, this isotopic property is common to the duals of the uniform polytopes. An isotopic 2-dimensional figure is isotoxal, i.e. edge-transitive. An isotopic 3-dimensional figure is isohedral, i.e. face-transitive. An isotopic 4-dimensional figure is isochoric, i.e. cell-transitive.
