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
Square root of 5 of a side located on one the faces containing that vertex and opposite to it, are in the ratio This follows from the geometrical relationships between a cube and the quantities (edge-to-face-diagonal ratio, or distance between opposite edges), (edge-to-cube-diagonal ratio) and (the relationship just mentioned above). A rectangle with side proportions 1: is called a "root-five rectangle" and is part of the series of root rectangles, a subset of dynamic rectangles, which are based on and successively constructed using the diagonal of the previous root rectangle, starting from a square. A root-5 rectangle is particularly notable in that it can
