Find out more about symmetrical 2D shapes. What are 3D shapes? Learn about 3D shapes and their properties. Properties of 3D shapes Learn about faces, edges and vertices.

Hard as it may be to imagine, there’s a newly defined geometric shape on the books. Based on recent calculations, mathematicians have described a new classification they now call a “soft cell.” In its ...

The post Adobe's Project Turntable: 3D rotation magic for 2D vector shapes appeared first on Boing Boing.

When you look around the universe you live in, it looks like a 3D space, just like the surface of the Earth looks like a 2D space. However, just like the Earth, if you were to look at the universe ...

Through a field called geometric topology, mathematicians like me study all possible spaces in all dimensions. Whether trying to design secure sensor networks, mine data or use origami to deploy ...

For example a cube has 8 vertices. 2D shapes are boring. Ah! Not really. But got your attention. Now. 3D shapes, they have 3 dimensions. Length, width and depth. What would the 3D version of a ...
