The pentagonal wegde is one of the seven topologically distinct convex hexahedra. Like the cube, it contains 8 vertices, 12 edges, and 6 faces, but its faces consist of 2 ...

The pentagrammic crossed antiprism is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 80 (Maeder 1997), Coxeter index 35 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and Har'El index 5 (Har'El 1993). It ...

The pentagrammic prism is the self-intersecting uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 78 (Maeder 1997), Coxeter index 33 (Coxeter et al. 1954), and Har'El index 3 (Har'El ...

There exist polyhedra which can be plaited (braided). Examples include a plaited cube and plaited icosahedron illustrated above (Pargeter 1959, Wells 1991). In the above ...

The geometric centroid of a polyhedron composed of N triangular faces with vertices (a_i,b_i,c_i) can be computed using the curl theorem as x^_ = ...

The diagonal of a polyhedron is any line segment connecting two nonadjacent vertices of the polyhedron. Any polyhedron having no diagonals must have a skeleton which is a ...

The volume of a polyhedron composed of N triangular faces with vertices (a_i,b_i,c_i) can be computed using the curl theorem as V=1/6sum_(i=1)^Na_i·n_i, where the normal n_i ...

Prince Rupert's cube is the largest cube that can be made to pass through a given cube. In other words, the cube having a side length equal to the side length of the largest ...

A polyhedron having two polygons in parallel planes as bases and triangular or trapezoidal lateral faces with one side lying in one base and the opposite polyhedron vertex or ...

A simple closed curve on a sphere that is not necessarily a great circle but merely intersects as a great circle would (Billera et al. 1999).
