Cube Cube In geometry, a cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six square faces, facets or sides, with three meeting at each vertex. The cube is the only regular hexahedron and is one of the five Platonic solids. It has 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices. The cube is also a square parallelepiped, an equilateral cuboid and a right rhombohedron. It is a regular square prism in three orientations, and a trigonal trapezohedron in four orientations. The cube is dual to the octahedron. It has cubical or octahedral symmetry. The cube is the only convex polyhedron whose faces
Unit cube unit hypercube of "n" dimensions is formula_1, the square root of "n" and the (Euclidean) length of the vector (1,1,1...1,1) in "n"-dimensional space. Unit cube A unit cube, more formally a cube of side 1, is a cube whose sides are 1 unit long. The volume of a 3-dimensional unit cube is 1 cubic unit, and its total surface area is 6 square units. The term "unit cube" or unit hypercube is also used for hypercubes, or "cubes" in "n"-dimensional spaces, for values of "n" other than 3 and edge length 1. Sometimes the term "unit cube" refers in specific
