i dont think there is one but i want to be sure
Roofs are much stronger because triangles are stronger than squares
triangles, quadrilaterals, circles...
No. Triangles are the strongest structure.
A circles structural shape is in fact stronger than a triangles structural geometric shape.

Because triangles are stable shapes.
triangles, quadrilaterals, circles...
No. Triangles are the strongest structure.
A circles structural shape is in fact stronger than a triangles structural geometric shape.
i think its because it has small triangles in the cube
Yes. For example, dodecagons, squares and triangles.
If you are comparing with a square then you are thinking of 2D shapes not 3D. The answer is yes there are other 2D shapes that tessellate.You have to look no further than nature to provide an example; the hexagon which is the shape that provides the basis for the honeycomb that bees use!Another example would be some triangles. For example, two equal right angle triangles will fit together to form a rectangle (which clearly tessellates).
yes. every square or rectangle and be divided into two triangles by connecting a pair of opposite corners.
Well, after studying extensively on this subject for countless years at the University of Cambridge, my colleagues and I have determined that, in fact, an arch is BY FAR the stronger of the two shapes. It is a common misconception that a triangle is stronger, and it has been my life work to prove this fact wrong. That is all.-Yea, after reading this I have to agree 100%. I remember working on a science project in the fifth grade and this tool bag argued with me over this point by saying that triangles were stronger. We went with his idea, which led us to FAIL our PROJECT.-This sounds right and I would agree. However, I must add that, a GROUP of triangles together can be potentially stronger than an arch. A single triangle is far weaker than an arch.
Common shapes with less than 4 sides are triangles and circles ( but the circle has no straight sides).
