A three-dimensional orthotope is also called aright rectangular prism, rectangular cuboid, orrectangular parallelepiped. A special case of ann-orthotope, where all edges are equal length, is then-cube.

is a cube a 3d square? The basic difference between a cube and asquare is, a cube is a 3D figure (having 3dimensions) i.e. length, breadth and height while a squarehas only 2 dimensions i.e. length and breadth. The sides (faces) ofa cube are squares. The edges are straight lines. Thecorners (vertices) are at right angles.

In respect to this, can a rectangle be a cube?
