What is the area of the largest square that can be inscribed on a unit cube (Trott 2004, p. 104)? The answer is 9/8, given by a square with vertices (1/4, 0, 0), (0, 1, 1/4), ...

A perfect magic cube is a magic cube for which the rows, columns, pillars, space diagonals, and diagonals of each n×n orthogonal slice sum to the same number (i.e., the magic ...

The mean triangle area of a triangle picked at random inside a unit cube is A^_=0.15107+/-0.00003, with variance var(A)=0.008426+/-0.000004. The distribution of areas, ...
