Regular solids are solids where all of the angles and faces are congruent. A die or cube is an example of a regular solid, specifically a regular square prism. A regular triangular pyramid would be a pyramid with a triangular base where each of the three sides of the pyramid were identical to the triangle on the base.

What are examples of platonic solids?
A Platonic solid is a convex polyhedron that is regular, in the sense of a regular polygon. Specifically, the faces of a Platonic solid are congruent regular polygons, with the same number of faces meeting at each vertex. They have the unique property that the faces, edges and angles of each solid are all congruent. Some examples are bricks, a dice, tissue boxes and houses.

What is a crystalline solid-?
Crystalline solids are a class of solids that have regular or nearly regular crystalline structures. This means that the atoms in these solids are arranged in an orderly manner. Examples of crystalline solids are sugar, sugar candy, or rock candy.
What are examples of nested solids?

How do crystalline solids differ from amorphous?
the difference between crystalline solids and amorphous solids are that particles in crystalline solids form a regular repeating pattern but in amorphous solids they are not arranged in a regular shapeCrystals are solids with fixed, regularpatterns
Are crystalline and amorphous solids?
Crystalline Solids are when the particles form a regular repeating pattern. Amorphous solids have particles that are not arranged in a regular pattern.
How do crystalline solids differ from amorphus solids?

What makes a glass different from a solid?
Glasses are solids. They're, specifically, amorphous solids. What makes them different from regular solids is that they're not regular, they're amorphous. Which is right there in the name.
Is a polyhedron a cube?
A polyhedron is a solid with flat faces - a cube is just one of many different examples of regular polyhedra - otherwise known as platonic solids.

What is the title of the 13th book of Euclid's Elements?
The thirteenth book of "Euclid's Elements" is called regular solids. In this final book, Euclid names and describes the properties of the five regular solids and ends it by proving no other regular solids exist.
How do you distinguish between a regular solid and an irregular solid?
Regular solids have all sides the same, irregular solids have different sides.
Do ionic solids have regular structures?
