Vertices, Edges and Faces
A vertex is a corner
An edge joins one vertex with another
A face is an individual surface
cube [countable]
1 a solid object with six equal square sides :
Name | Equal edge-lengths? | Equal angles? | Right angles? |
---|---|---|---|
Cube | Yes | Yes | Yes |
2 the cube of something
the number you get when you multiply a number by itself twice, for example 4 x 4 x 4 = 64, so the cube of 4 is 64
