Honeycombs (geometry)

Tetrahedral-cubic honeycomb

In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the tetrahedron-cube honeycomb is a compact uniform honeycomb, constructed from cube, tetrahedron, and cuboctahedron cells, in a rhombicuboctahedron vertex figure. It has a single-ring Coxeter diagram, , and is named by its two regular cells. A geometric honeycomb is a space-filling of polyhedral or higher-dimensional cells, so that there are no gaps. It is an example of the more general mathematical tiling or tessellation in any number of dimensions. Honeycombs are usually constructed in ordinary Euclidean ("flat") space, like the convex uniform honeycombs. They may also be constructed in non-Euclidean spaces, such as hyperbolic uniform honeycombs. Any finite uniform polytope can be projected to its circumsphere to form a uniform honeycomb in spherical space. (Wikipedia).

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
