Cube this problem, and in 1837 Pierre Wantzel proved it to be impossible because the cube root of 2 is not a constructible number. The cube has three uniform colorings, named by the colors of the square faces around each vertex: 111, 112, 123. The cube has three classes of symmetry, which can be represented by vertex-transitive coloring the faces. The highest octahedral symmetry O has all the faces the same color. The dihedral symmetry D comes from the cube being a prism, with all four sides being the same color. The lowest symmetry D is also a prismatic symmetry, with
Dino Cube first mass-produced version had pictures of dinosaurs depicted on each piece, which led to the adoption of the puzzle's current name of "Dino Cube". It is not known what the puzzle had been called before this dinosaur version was introduced. The later versions, however, adopted the practice of using standard single-colour stickers, in common with most other twisty puzzles. The Dino Cube is a twisty puzzle in the shape of a cube. It consists of 12 movable pieces, all of which are located on the edges of the cube. The puzzle can be thought of as twisting around its corners:
