rhomboedrinen
A rhombohedron is a polyhedron with six faces, where each face is a rhombus. It is one of the five Platonic solids, characterized by having congruent regular polygonal faces and identical vertices. The rhombohedron is distinct from the cube, though it can be considered a skewed or "stretched" version of one, where all faces remain rhombic rather than square.
The term "rhombohedron" derives from the Greek words *rhombos* (ῥόμβος), meaning "diamond-shaped," and *hedra* (ἕδρα), meaning "seat" or
A rhombohedron can be defined mathematically by three vectors in three-dimensional space that originate from a
In crystallography, the rhombohedral system describes a type of crystal lattice where the unit cell is a
The rhombohedron is also relevant in geometry and physics, particularly in studies of symmetry and lattice
