A tetradecahedron is a polyhedron with 14 faces. There are numerous topologically distinct forms of a tetradecahedron, with many constructible entirely with regular polygon faces. A tetradecahedron is sometimes called a tetrakaidecahedron. No difference in meaning is ascribed. The Greek word kai means 'and'. There is evidence that mammalian epidermal cells are shaped like flattened tetrakaidecahedra, an idea first suggested by Lord Kelvin. The polyhedron can also be found in soap bubbles and in sintered ceramics, due to its ability to tesselate in 3D space. (Wikipedia).
How to construct a Tetrahedron
How the greeks constructed the first platonic solid: the regular tetrahedron. Source: Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 13. In geometry, a tetrahedron also known as a triangular pyramid, is a polyhedron composed of four triangular faces, six straight edges, and four vertex corners. Th

The geometry of the regular tetrahedron | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 45 | NJ Wildberger
We look at the geometry of the regular tetrahedron, from the point of view of rational trigonometry. In particular we re-evaluate an important angle for chemists formed by the bonds in a methane molecule, and obtain an interesting rational spread instead. Video Content: 00:00 Introduction
