What is a cube like?

Answer 1

'cube like' is correctly named as a 'CUBOID'.

Both are solid objects, with six faces, eight corners all set at 90 degrees. and 12 edges.

However, a CUBE has six square faces.

A CUBOID has four rectangular faces and two squares faces.

NB A bulders/bricklayers house brick is a cubois.

Answer 2

A cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six square faces, facets or sides, with three meeting at each vertex. The cube can also be called a regular hexahedron and is one of the five Platonic solids. It is a special kind of square prism, of rectangular parallelepiped and of 3-sided trapezohedron. The cube is dual to the octahedron. It has cubical symmetry (also called octahedral symmetry). A cube is the three-dimensional case of the more general concept of a hypercube, which exists in any dimension.
