6-cube regular 6-cube or 6-orthoplex. 6-cube In geometry, a 6-cube is a six-dimensional hypercube with 64 vertices, 192 edges, 240 square faces, 160 cubic cells, 60 tesseract 4-faces, and 12 5-cube 5-faces. It has Schläfli symbol {4,3}, being composed of 3 5-cubes around each 4-face. It can be called a hexeract, a portmanteau of tesseract (the "4-cube") with "hex" for six (dimensions) in Greek. It can also be called a regular dodeca-6-tope or dodecapeton, being a 6-dimensional polytope constructed from 12 regular facets. It is a part of an infinite family of polytopes, called hypercubes. The dual of a 6-cube can
Prince Rupert's cube be passed through a hole made in another cube "of the same size" without splitting the cube into two pieces. If two points are placed on two adjacent edges of a unit cube, each at a distance of 3/4 from the point where the two edges meet, then the distance between the two points will be These two points, together with a second set of two points placed symmetrically on the opposite face of the cube, form the four vertices of a square that lies entirely within the unit cube. This square, extruded in both directions perpendicularly to itself, forms
