Snake cube Snake cube The snake cube is a mechanical puzzle, a chain of 27 or 64 cubelets, connected by an elastic band running through them. The cubelets can rotate freely. The aim of the puzzle is to arrange the chain in such a way that they will form 3 x 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 x 4 cube. A variation on the puzzle is a Kibble cube, which is also a string of cubes but has slots on the cubes. There are also many different styles of the cube. It can be made up of wood or plastic and
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
