WHAT DOES PARALLELOPIPED MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Parallelepiped

In geometry, a parallelepiped is a three-dimensional figure formed by six parallelograms. By analogy, it relates to a parallelogram just as a cube relates to a square or as a cuboid to a rectangle. In Euclidean geometry, its definition encompasses all four concepts. In this context of affine geometry, in which angles are not differentiated, its definition admits only parallelograms and parallelepipeds. Three equivalent definitions of parallelepiped are ▪ a polyhedron with six faces, each of which is a parallelogram, ▪ a hexahedron with three pairs of parallel faces, and ▪ a prism of which the base is a parallelogram. The rectangular cuboid, cube, and the rhombohedron are all specific cases of parallelepiped. "Parallelepiped" is now usually pronounced /ˌpærəlɛlɨˈpɪpɛd/, /ˌpærəlɛlɨˈpaɪpɛd/, or /-pɨd/; traditionally it was /ˌpærəlɛlˈɛpɨpɛd/ PARR-ə-lel-EP-i-ped in accordance with its etymology in Greek παραλληλ-επίπεδον, a body "having parallel planes". Parallelepipeds are a subclass of the prismatoids.
