Polyhedra

Hexahedron

A hexahedron (plural: hexahedra) is any polyhedron with six faces. A cube, for example, is a regular hexahedron with all its faces square, and three squares around each vertex. There are seven topologically distinct convex hexahedra, one of which exists in two mirror image forms. There are three topologically distinct concave hexahedra. Two polyhedra are "topologically distinct" if they have intrinsically different arrangements of faces and vertices, such that it is impossible to distort one into the other simply by changing the lengths of edges or the angles between edges or faces.

How Many Faces, Edges And Vertices Does A Hexagonal Prism Have?

How Many Faces, Edges And Vertices Does A Hexagonal Prism Have? Here we’ll look at how to work out the faces, edges and vertices of a hexagonal prism. We’ll start by counting the faces, these are the flat surfaces that make the shape. A hexagonal prism has 8 faces altogether - 2 hexagon

Foldable Polyhedron 1

Delta-Star is a polyhedral object which I invented in 1996. The type of Delta-Star corresponds to Deltahedrons. It expands and shrinks. Especially highly symmetric tetrahedron,octahedron,icosahedron types and hexahedron,decahedron types can transform smoothly.
