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
Nth root real number is a positive real number, negative numbers do not have real square roots. However, for every negative real number there are two imaginary square roots. For example, the square roots of −25 are 5"i" and −5"i", where "i" represents a number whose square is . A cube root of a number "x" is a number "r" whose cube is "x": Every real number "x" has exactly one real cube root, written formula_4. For example, Every real number has two additional complex cube roots. Expressing the degree of an "n"th root in its exponent form, as in formula_37, makes
