7-cube 7-cube In geometry, a 7-cube is a seven-dimensional hypercube with 128 vertices, 448 edges, 672 square faces, 560 cubic cells, 280 tesseract 4-faces, 84 penteract 5-faces, and 14 hexeract 6-faces. It can be named by its Schläfli symbol {4,3}, being composed of 3 6-cubes around each 5-face. It can be called a hepteract, a portmanteau of tesseract (the "4-cube") and "hepta" for seven (dimensions) in Greek. It can also be called a regular tetradeca-7-tope or tetradecaexon, being a 7 dimensional polytope constructed from 14 regular facets. It is a part of an infinite family of polytopes, called hypercubes. The dual
Yoshimoto Cube cube can be dissected and reassembled into two stellated rhombic dodecahedra, each of which comprise half the volume of the original cube, making it a kind of three-dimensional dissection puzzle. Yoshimoto Cube The Yoshimoto Cube is a polyhedral mechanical puzzle toy invented in 1971 by , who discovered that two stellated rhombic dodecahedra could be pieced together into a cube when he was finding different ways he could split a cube equally in half. Yoshimoto first introduced his cube in 1972 at a solo exhibition entitled "From Cube to Space," and later developed three commercial versions. In 1982, Yoshimoto Cube
