Order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has octahedral and triangular tiling cells connected in a hexagonal prism vertex figure. The truncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has truncated tetrahedra and triangular tiling cells connected in a hexagonal prism vertex figure. The cantellated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has cuboctahedron and trihexagonal tiling cells connected in a tetrahedron vertex figure. The cantitruncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has truncated cuboctahedron and trihexagonal tiling cells connected in an octahedron vertex figure. Order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb is a paracompact regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). It is called "paracompact" because
Wax argument Wax argument The wax argument or the ball of wax example is a thought experiment that René Descartes created within his "Meditations on First Philosophy". He devised it to analyze what properties are essential for bodies, show how uncertain our knowledge of the world is compared to our knowledge of our minds, and argue for rationalism. Descartes first considers all the sensible properties of a ball of wax such as its shape, texture, size, color, and smell. He then points out that all these properties change as the wax is moved closer to a fire. The only properties that necessarily
