A rhombohedron is a three-dimensional geometric shape that has six faces, all of which are rhombi. A rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides equal in length.
A rhombohedron has eight vertices and twelve edges. Each vertex of a rhombohedron is the meeting point of four rhombi. It is a special case of a parallelepiped where all six faces are rhombi instead of rectangles or squares.
The angles between adjacent faces of a rhombohedron are all equal, and each angle is greater than 90 degrees. The shape is symmetric along three axes that pass through opposite vertices.
Rhombohedra can be found in various crystal structures and minerals, such as diamond, calcite, and dolomite. They can also be used in architecture and design as decorative elements or building blocks.
