Tetrahedrons are 4-sided solids. A regular tetrahedron is the equilateral pyramid, having one pyramid as the base and three others the sides.

What is two tetrahedrons stuck together called?

Two regular tetrahedrons connected face to face make a "regular triangular dipyramid." That is one of the 92 "Johnson solids." Those are the convex polyhedrons whose faces are regular polygons but do not belong to either of the two sets of highly symmetric polyhedrons (the Platonic and the Archimedean) or to the perhaps less interesting two infinite families of prisms and antiprisms. If the two tetrahedrons overlap, both centers at the same place but with the tetrahedrons facing in opposite directions, it makes a "stellated octahedron."

Why are tetrahedrons important?

Tetrahedrons are important because they are the simplest three-dimensional geometric shape, consisting of four triangular faces, which allows them to serve as fundamental building blocks in various fields such as chemistry, physics, and engineering. In chemistry, they represent the molecular geometry of certain compounds, influencing properties and reactivity. Additionally, tetrahedrons are used in computer graphics and modeling, structural engineering, and even in optimizing packing arrangements in materials science. Their stability and efficiency make them crucial in both theoretical and practical applications.
