Our world is made up of elegant shapes — there's the square, the rectangle, the sphere, the prism and many more. But sometimes, these shapes don't quite fit nature's game board. Sometimes, you also ...

In geometry, an n-sided prism is a polyhedron made of an n-sided polygonal base, a translated copy, and n faces joining corresponding sides. Thus these joining faces are parallelograms. All ...

There's been an exciting, new development in the action-packed world of geometric shapes. Researchers from the the University of Seville and Seville Institute of Biomedicine have discovered a new ...

A prism has a constant cross-section throughout its length. When the cross-section is a triangle, the prism is called a triangular prism. When the cross-section is a hexagon, the prism is called a ...

I’m not entirely satisfied that there’s any definition of the word ‘shape’ that would indicate that there are a finite number of extant geometric shapes in existence, just waiting to be discovered, ...

A 3D shape with all straight edges and flat faces is a polyhedron. Other 3D shapes with least one curved surface are not polyhedra. A 3D shape with regular polygonal faces, meeting at equal angles, is ...
