单词 | tetrakis-hexahedron |
释义 | tetrakis-hexahedronn. A solid figure contained by twenty-four equal triangular planes, having the appearance of a cube with a low pyramid raised on each of its six faces. (In Crystallography belonging to the isometric system.) In Geometry the name is specially applied to the figure when the pyramids are of such a height that all the adjacent faces are equally inclined to each other, so that the figure meets the sphere circumscribing the fundamental cube at fourteen points. Also called tetrahexahedron (b), cube-pyramidion, and fluoroid.
