In general, a tetrakis hexahedron is a non-regular icositetrahedron that can be constructed as a positive augmentation of a cube. Such a solid is also known as a ...

In general, a triakis tetrahedron is a non-regular dodecahedron that can be constructed as a positive augmentation of a regular tetrahedron. Such a solid is also known as a ...

Alexandrov's theorem addresses conditions under which a polygon will fold into a convex polyhedron (Malkevitch).

The point of concurrence of the four maltitudes of a cyclic quadrilateral. Let M_(AC) and M_(BD) be the midpoints of the diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, and let P ...

The area element for a surface with first fundamental form ds^2=Edu^2+2Fdudv+Gdv^2 is dA=sqrt(EG-F^2)du ^ dv, where du ^ dv is the wedge product.

The three circular triangles A^'B^'C^', AB^'C^', A^'BC^', and A^'B^'C obtained by extending the arcs of a circular triangle ABC into complete circles.

An asymptotic direction at a point p of a regular surface M in R^3 is a direction in which the normal curvature of M vanishes. 1. There are no asymptotic directions at an ...

The common perpendicular to two opposite edges of a tetrahedron.

All triangles are bicentric, i.e., possess both an incircle and a circumcircle. This is not necessarily the case for polygons with four or more sides. The inradius r and ...

A ruled surface M is said to be a binormal developable of a curve y if M can be parameterized by x(u,v)=y(u)+vB^^(u), where B is the binormal vector.
