What is a Cube?

A Cube is a 3-Dimensional Solid figure whose all faces are square shaped. We can also say that a cube can be visualized in the form of a square prism. This is because the faces of a cube are in the form of a square and are also platonic solid in nature. The faces of a cube are also known as planes.

Properties of a Cube

The properties of a cube are mentioned below:

• All the faces are square-shaped, which implies that the length, breadth, and height are the same.
• The angles between any two faces or surfaces are equivalent to 90°.
• The opposite planes are parallel to each other.
• The opposite edges are parallel to each other.
• Each of the faces forms an intersection with four faces.
• Each of the vertices intersects with three faces and three edges.

Cube Examples

Examples of Cube include, Rubik’s Cube, Ice Cube, Die used in Ludo, Cubical Box Etc. A picture of examples of a Cube is attached below:

Cube is a 3-Dimensional Figure in which all dimensions are equal. A cube has 6 Square faces as all the sides of a cube are equal. The boundary where the faces of the cube meet are called the cube edges. The point at which the cube edges meet is called the cube vertices. A cube has 12 Edges and 8 vertices. In this article, we will learn about cube edges faces vertices in detail with a brief introduction to cubes.
